And as for "which scope", it really depends on your eyes not anyone else's.

If you're comfortable and can make good clean shots with the scopes you have, then that's great.
My story is a bit different.  Old eyes for sure but had cataract surgery before I could see really well.  But I have a need to see and even count antler points/ see spread distances so I have chosen to go with a large magnification and larger objective lens.  When going beyond 100 yds I also like a FFP scope... so I've gotten into several Vortex ffp scopes, with 44 or 50 mm objective lenses.  The light gathering and extra magnification help me a lot in identifying if it's a deer I want to shoot... or not.
The shots you don't take are as important, IMO, as the one you do.
But it comes down to what to your eyes need for you to make good shots.  No one else's eyes matter in the discussion.

All good points which leads to only the op can decide in the end.

Purchased my first, first focal plane scope early last fall. My impressions may be all wrong. lots of choices lots of price points ranging from KISS to the sky is the limit. up until last fall Id consider myself a KISS kind a scope guy. Took my nicest deer yet with that set up. to be honest any of my previous scopes would likely have done just fine.


Laser range finder was the most helpful glass for last seasons hunt to be honest.
I carry a range finder and a pair of binoculars , Have been told I need the cataract surgery but haven't had it done yet. Maybe something like a 2x10 or 2x12 with that I could do away with binoculars and just use the scope , Maybe
