Dear moderator, IMO this is a fire topic rather than an optics one.
Folks, been giving some thought to the various recent topics on correlating weight or other personal variables to caliber, and while I have not a whole lot to add to that discussion have given some thought to scope power under a "what's missing" from the discussion.
Far be it for me to correlate a personal body attribute to caliber, or other such variable, but it seems to me the frivolous banter is incomplete without a humorous analogy of scope strength to ....ahem.... weiner size.
For example a 3x9 scope might indicate a three at rest and nine at attention. Whether centimeters or inches ..... YMMV
And for those of a certain age, or for whom variability is no longer medically available, perhaps something in fixed. I'm a cancer survivor so .......
Anyway, I have no morbid interest in anyone's personal attributes, but since this is the campfire and opinions abound, fire away and....

Dang spotting scopes sure get heavy sometimes, especially at it's normal 60x.

RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.
