Maybe the joy of a fixed 6X........its about the limit for most folks offhand?
If hunting open country .............why not?

Binos of 8 or 10X, don't need lots of scope mag.

I've shot movers in thick stuff w fixed 4x.
Like a little less mag.

2-7X hard to beat IMHO.

Buddy put a 6X on his BLR .243 for yotes.
Said he doesn't like it as he calls em in close, in timber.
Too much according to him.
Fields he likes it.
