MD,
Agree. The difference may mostly be what one grew up with and what they know can be done with it. Combined with figuring out what is best for the type of hunting they do, and not what they are force fed by most of the recent trends.
Shot one Buck at around 330 with a 4x and 3 minute dot. Bottom of dot on the backline. A Doe at 358 with a 6x post and duplex and a solid rest. A bedded Buck at 3 big steps with a 6X. Easily found the neck/back junction and hit the trigger. In recreating that distance for my own curiosity, everything was blurred, but in the moment it wasn't an issue.
All the others have usually been under 100 and the lower fixed powers have never been a handicap....
Addition: The 1.5-5 is also a favorite....
