I totally disagree. High magnification slows the shooter down in finding their point of aim when close in, especially in dense vegetation. What is high power? To me it depends on the terrain and vegetation. I have been in thick cover and a good sized Bull Elephant about 10 to 12 meters away. In this instance 3 power would be too high a magnification.
My 375H&H wears a 1-6X42 Zeiss Victory scope. My 416 Rigby has an Aimpoint and a Trijacon 1.25-4X32. Close dense and it is the Aimpoint-I find this faster than open sights, eyes aren't what they use to be- if going out into open areas it is the Trijacon, set at 1.25 power.
Not even sure what you are saying. You say you disagree totally and then basically reinforce what I said in my posts.
Read my post above it.
I take if from your post you are saying that high magnification is good even in close up situations. I am say this is not the case. Yes they can be an advantage when the range is not close. Not sure how I can take anything else from your post??
