There was another thread here the other day and scope recommendations came up. The op stated that he had several fixed power scopes and was asking for some recommendations for different scopes. It got me thinking and I just can't find any good reasons for a fixed power scope these days. Modern mid to high end scopes rarely fail by fogging up due to bad seals and a variable power scope offers a lot more flexibility. Turn it down low for close quarters or near dark and then crank it up for long range work. A fixed power strands you in no man's land. Often marginal for many situations and no way to adjust. Maybe a fixie is a hair lighter and more compact but not tremendously so.
What's the attraction of a fixed power scope ? I just don't get it.
