Hunting vs Target opinion needed
#7
One thing I learned long ago was to fit your target size to the scope. i.e. We shoot 1" dots all the way to 600 with a good 10x or above scope. With a 2.5x or 3x at 100 yrds a 4' or 6" dot would be more appropriate. As long as you can see the target clearly, the center of the dot is the same no matter how large the dot is. One other thing I have done when using a target that was too small for the power scope I was using is to place the cross hairs where the horizontal touches the bottom of the dot and the verticle touches one side of the dot. This allows you to have a very consistent sight picture. Long winded way to say small groups can be shot with a low power scope.
Kind regard
