I would choose the 16x because it will have a noticeably brighter image because of the increased exit pupil. And 16x is tons for 400 yards. The 10x would actually work very well for 400 yards too.

you're singing my song rj...i just turned 60 and the no-line trifocals make for some interesting viewing situations...it's like looking through a prisim while trying to focus on a particular item at a particular distance...to read the forum i have to lean my head back and i get a stiff neck...i'll heed what you have said here...i'll be doing most of my shooting between 200 and 400 yards...i'm leaning towards the 20...thanks again...sgt zing usmc 68-72...

the 16 is what i first thought of as it seems the perfect comprimise...i doubt i'll get the 10x as i'm accustomed to shooting the 14x and 15x maximum on my variable scopes...this is the first centerfire i've had in 15 years so i have not been shooting the long distances...airguns out to 80 yards and a 17hmr which i top out at 200 yards...thanks for your input st...sgt zing usmc 68-72...

If you look at it this way. At 20x a 400 yard target will look like it is 20 yards away. With the 16x it will look like it is 25 yards away. Not much difference, and when you consider the other huge advantages you get it is a no brainier in my book. Increase FOV, increase exit pupil, decrease shake in the scope. With 16x you will not notice imperfections in the glass as much as with 20x. Less mirage. and the list goes on. In most cases the 16x just offers to much to choose the 20x over it.

IMO one of those would be cool as well. I have seriously considered one of the 3-9x's for one of my ARs. Good luck, let us know what you choose and share some pics. ![]() |
