For most hunting, the power scope has some real benefits over the fixed power models. That depends on terrain, magnification is turned up and down as needed. When hunting, it is good to have scope set at the low enough setting in case, animal is spotted close range, and it is also picked up very easily in scope. In case, animal is spotted in longer range, then there can generally be time accessible to set scope as required.Most famous variable scopes have 2-7 to 3-9 power ranges. The magnification ranges work very wonderfully for any medium and long range game hunting. Aslo, nine power magnification is a lot for shots out to around 400 yards. In case, longer shots
than that is taken, 4 to 12 will have advantage. Anything is not needed, till doing some extreme long hunting that needs heavy barreled, and highly accurate benchrest rifles. For the close range hunting, 1-4, 1.5-5 and 1.75-6 scope will not be beat.
