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....
