And at 20m looking up into a tree attempting to shoot a possum its hard to fit the entire possum into the scope view. And then you are generally not braced against anything to assist in getting rid of the 6.5 power wobbles.

    Once you are shooting stuff out beyond 50m it comes into its own.
    Our Sytong HT60 3x-8x outsells the 6.5x-13x 20 to 1 for this very reason.
