I am getting into rifle hunting this year as I just purchased a CA Ridgeline 300 WM after shotgun hunting my whole life.
I am looking at the NF SHV 4-14 F1 as I like the first focal plan and the price range of the SHV is where I want to be. My question to anyone that can help is would the 14x be enough magnification for shooting out to 700 yards? It seems from all the searching I have done is most people say they have higher magnification but is everyone really using the higher magnification when they are hunting?
