    Some very interesting views on what make a good varmint scope and in different shooting situations everyone has a valid point.
    When shooting bunnies alot of the time mirage and hot days can mean about 14-15 power is all you can use as well as giving you a better field of view for finding moving targets.
    But Greg point is also true about More mag not making it harder to hold still, more mag makes it much more obvious how much you are moving relative to the target
    Homers point about shooting 400 + yards and using 20-25 power as bunnies aren't a big target and in summer alot of young bunnies are about making it very hard to see the target behind the cross hairs at 14 power also can be very true at the longer ranges.
    My view is to have a good quality very power scope say 8-25x50 that you can use at different power settings depending on the weather and distance you are shooting, a good ballistic retical for fast shooting on moving targets as well as reliable scope click for more precise holds on long range targets.
    1000yds is fun, 1500yds is getting interesting, 2000yds is exciting, 2500yds will blow your mind
