There is one thing I might add, a high magnification optic can win or lose a match by it's increased ability to read mirage. Read up on mirage, it's one of the trickiest things a shooter has to deal with...and wind or air movement are a main component. It doesn't get much written about it, but if you doubt it is a factor, I advise you to lock in a rifle with a strong optic on a solid bench on a clear cold day with bright sunlight, and without interference just watch the bullseye "move" as mirage bends the light rays and the bull appears to move away from the crosshairs. It's real.
Edit, I am not explaining this well. Let's just say, wind moves the bullet and mirage moves the image. Higher magnification often enables you to see the mirage so you can fire when it is consistent with the previous shot.
