With so many kinds of high magnification scopes on the market with just as many "long range" reticles of various types, it brings a question to the table for all you long range shooters on this forum.
Considering a ten inch bullseye, at what range do various magnifications become a handicap to the hunter being able to keep his shots in the 10 inch circle?
Or, conversely, at 300 yards or 400 yards, what minimum magnification would be necessary to ensure consistent hits on a 10 inch bull?
I have never tried this, but I am sure some of you have and hope you will add your comments to this thread. I am not looking for caliber recommendations or debate. Let's assume also that the gun would be dead on at range involved.
