Default Target and 3D scope question?

I am 62 years old and am returning to target archery with a compound bow after a 15 year layoff. I will be shooting indoor (30 yards) and some 3D (out to about 50 yards I am told). Do you folks have any ideas about what kind of a scope I should consider and how much magnification would be suitable for my Toxonics target sight? Thanks...

For 3D competitions I use a 4X scope and a yellow clairifier in my peep I can most often see the rings as far as indoors
(vegas rounds ) I use a 6X also with a yellow clairifier just a smaller hole.. If you use to much power in a scope for 3D you will lose your target quite often and fight to see where you are.. Hope this helps and good luck..any ? feel free to email me... Joe
