Scope magnification for a .204
Will be ordering my Rem 700 VTR in .204 cal in a few hours.(YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY).
I am deciding between 4 -16 X 44m or a 4 - 16mm x 50mm model, both with illuminated reticles.
Both scopes can be had in 6 - 24 power as well, other features equal.
Very little difference physically but I did notice the eye relief goes from 3 to 3.2 " on one brand and 3.8" on 4 x 16 and 4.1" on the 6 - 24 model.
I don't know a lot about eye relief, is longer eye relief more forgiving if you are shooting in a hurry?
Also, is going bigger on a 204 a waste of money and weight. It will be strictly a coyote (possibly fox)
Thanks' in advance for everyone time.
Ken
