Thread: What magnification are you running in the bush?

Swaro z6i 1-6, I'd like to get a z8i 1-8 one day.

I think the next generation of hunting scopes may be something like true 1x and then up to 10x. March, Eotech, Vortex, Sig already have offerings out in 1-10 but they are expensive.

...and heavy compared to scopes with a low magnification range.

That's the problem right there, there are some lovely scopes out there but the moment you want much than 3x zoom or illumination you end up paying a significant weight penalty.
