Can't see needin' anything more than 1x/100 yds. for anything larger than varmints.

I can make 1X/100 yards work if the scope has fine crosshairs. But I certainly don't think more than 2X/100 is necessary. I've under 1MOA at 600 yards with a fixed 6X SWFA scope before.

For 600 yards something with 9X or 10X on the upper end should be fine.

Most people don't really want the truth.

They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.
