    G'Day Fella's,

    This has already been mentioned and I also reckon you need At Least 20x if not 25x or more, for longer range (400+meters) sniping of bunnies.
    My current long ranger has an older 6.5-20 Leupold BR on it and once you get out past 500m, even the 1/8" dot reticule covers up a lot of the target!
    Keep an eye out for a fixed 24x scope, but you may have problems with the fixed power and mirage in the hot weather.

    Hope that helps

    Doh!
