It's plenty of magnification
Can definitely shoot out to 600 with a 3-9, but me personally I like a little more magnification for those ranges. I like to at least have 14 power. That's just me thoughWould the 3-9 magnification range be good if i was hoping to shoot max 600 yards? Most things i read said it’d be solid for 400-500. Not looking to take longer shots than 600 but would be nice to stretch it out wt the range
Animals at 600?Agreed, he shouldn't be shooting. Target shooting at 600? Why not? I can get someone on target at 600 in less than a couple hours.Buy the 3-9 credo and learn how to shoot out to 400 first. No offense but if this is your first hunting rifle it’s going to take some serious time and training before you should be looking at shooting something at 600 yards.
Yeah was thinking more in the longterm with the scope, bowhunting is still what I’d like to be doing so definitely love the stalking portion and will try and get and close as possible. But would like to increase my range at the shooting range, just to my confidence.Animals at 600?Agreed, he shouldn't be shooting. Target shooting at 600? Why not?

I sent him an email on friday and he responded, told me to give him a call today. So I will, i’m sure we’ll get it figured outIf you did purchase it from Cameraland, Doug is a great guy to deal with. I have bought several high-end optics from him and even shipped back a Schmidt bender Klassic that had an issue. He usually pops up on the site from time to time. I would reach out to him with your issues if it did indeed come from Cameraland.
Looking over all the suggestions and responses, think I'm going to go with the Trijicon Credo 3-9x40. I don't plan on taking a shot past 400-500 yards on my Coues hunt and I think this will suffice for that. I looked at the review done on this and it seems like a solid scope. I liked the idea of the Maven RS1.2 but that's an option for the future as it would put me way over. Going to return the Optika6 scope and purchase this today, hopefully to get in the mail tomorrow!
I was planning on getting the SFP Green Mil-Square Reticle.The mil reticle version Credo is what you want.
