I use a cheap 20-60x60 on a heavy duty video camera tripod. I generally keep it at 20x and can easily find 22lr bullet holes at 100 yards.

The limit I run into is light transmission at high magnification. At 60x it gets quite dark and would be unusable on any but the brightest days. Whatever you get, you will need to attach it to something that doesn't wobble in the wind. That's a greater impediment to seeing detail than lense quality for me.
