I use mine primarily as a calling rifle, shoot the occasional crow or other target of opportunity. It wears a 6x36 FXII. I’ve thought about going to a 3-9 for the extra zoom on longer shots or smaller critters but really haven’t had any trouble with the 6X so haven’t switched. I have a 4.5-14 Leupold on my 222mag, it’s okay but not my favorite narrow eye box and to me it goes to crap fast as the light fades. YMMV
