Who hunts with a fixed power scope

[snipermedic]

I was wondering who hunts with a fixed power scope. What kind, what power, and do you like it and have you had any issues.

I've been hunting with my 25-06 with a Redfield x4 scope since the mid 80's. No problems with it but I'm looking to upgrade to a 4x12 soon. Just getting older. Hunted in Hill Country and West Texas.

I hunted with a Ruger 25-06 with a x7 for a long time. The scope is on my 30-30 now.

I have a .264, a .260, a .223 and a .221 Fireball all set up with 6x42 Leupolds. Rock solid and no issues of any kind.

I have 6x42 Leupolds as well on a few different rifles. Feel confident out to 300 yards with those scopes.

I use 3x9 scopes but always keep them set at 4 if that helps.

I have a leupold FX12 on a 243 in low light I wish I could go to a lower focus setting... i don't hunt with it very often for that reason. I have a VX3 3.5-10x50 setting around in the safe to replace it but just haven't put it on...

6x Leopold on several older rifles. no issues or problems.
wish I could find some fixed 6 power compact scopes

[White Falcon]

6x, TV shaped lens! Old TV.

In for the responses. I've also been contemplating doing this with my .270. Very rarely do I ever take my scope off 4x. I just like the wider field of view lower power affords.

[ballfroguy]

I got a variable but keep it on 6.

ONly fixed scope I have is on a Ruger Blackhawk .41 mag and it is a reddot with 0 magnification.

[bluelund79]

I hunted with my old Winchester 1917 30/06 with Redfield 4x fixed for almost 15 years. It may come out of the safe later this year if I get to hunt in WI

[E.TX.BOWHUNTER]

4X weaver on my 30-06. Zeroed at 100 yards.

Wow I'm surprised by all the low power hunting scopes. I guess I'm odd cause I never turn mine down lower than 10x and prefer it to be around 16.
