    I usually set the power on the 17HMR at 8x, but up to 18x if it gets out over 100 metres and not off the shoulder, the 204 I run an 8 - 32 power and use the same way. My 6.5 and 223 run very simple but good quality 3-9x ok on the larger animals. I shoot with prescription progressive lenses that give me better than 20/20 vision and I am very fussy about being able to see!
    Boom, cough,cough,cough
