I will be on 16X probably 95% of the time.
Starting out, one might want to dial that back to 12 - 14X for the wider field of view - makes it easier to pick up the targets.
Where the extra magnification comes into play is during zeroing and gathering your DOPE. Then I might be on 24X or even 30X, depending.
A lot of the less expensive scopes have the best clarity somewhere near the midrange of the magnification.
