Lot of good thinking there. In retrospect, I wonder if the new (20-30 years past) generation of inexpensive (finally) top quality optics that have reached all the way up to 12X and amazing clarity have caused a whole lot of shooters to be way overconfident with their shooting?
I didn't even own a variable until I was in my 30s. Old guys like me grew up with 2 and 4 power, and there were no illusions about how far away 400 yards was.
Only varmint hunters got great scopes.
