    We all get caught up with Magnification but quality Glass trumps Magnification.
    Better glass gives you better resolution, think of it as being able to see the bullet holes on paper at 100 mtr.
    Yes you need some magnification but for game sized animals out to ??? you said 308 so is that 500 mtr??? then 15x is plenty.
    I've shot deer at 230 mtr with 4 power no problem. You can get by with 10 or 12x for shooting to 500 mtr.
