I prefer the 1.5X to 5X type, or at least close to those magnifications. For deer at the ranges you will be shooting them 5 power is all you should ever need. I have mine set at 1.5x and if time and opportunity present, I might crank up the power. The low powers also usually have more eye relief to help in preventing eyebrow cuts from hard recoil. Some people swear by the 3 to 9 scopes, I just feel that at 3x there isn't enough field of view with close in shots, at least not as much as I like. At 1.5x you can actually shoot with both eyes open.
