RE: Size Matters - I Like My Smaller One
I think I more than likely would too. I've never had a fixed 4x scope. Well, I take that back I have on a pellet gun but never on a regular gun. I've gotten used to zooming in but I think that if I shot it a bit to get used to it I'd like the 4x just as much if not more. I have that Tasco on my Marlin muzzle loader and I put a Leupold VX-1 I had as a spare on my new Remington Genesis. Both are 3x9. The my other two rifles that have scopes also all have 3x9's. One is a Simmons and one a Burris. So as you can tell most of what I have is 3x9's. I like them but I think if I had a fixed lower power scope I'd like it a lot too. As long as I'm not taking 2-400 yard shots which is when I zoom in. I shot a deer this year with my rifle at around 150 yards and had my scope on 5x and it did just fine.
