I tried both the 0.25 and 0.5 power. The weaker ones bring the front sight in sharp and still allow me to see the target well.
Be prepared to go upwards in magnification as you age.

I started with .025 thirteen years ago. Then about seven year ago needed .050. Now I need bi-focal.... .075 reading / .025 distance.
