While checking out some scopes on midwayusa the other day, I came across a Bushnell 10X fixed power scope.

I believe the fixed power (often 10X) was the standard for military/long range shooters.

I don't see many 10X scopes, has this lost relevance and been replaced by a particular variable range?
