    Most of my hunting is done in thick cedar swamps of northern Michigan. for that, lower the better... 1.5-6x

    When I sit outside the swamp, where 350 yard shots are possible, I prefer 4-12x

    In any event, I've used Leupy VX-3 (loved their 1.75-6) and VX-1 and 2 3-9.40's... Zeiss and Swarvski... Have decided any "decent" Bushnell with RainGuard beats them all on a cold (anything below freezing) day.

    Can I vote 2x?
