Having recently put a Luepold VXL 4.5-14 on my new 30.06 i leave it set around 7-8 when out stalking, spotted a few roe with my 8x binos and when i've put my scope on them i thought they didn't appear so magnified through the scope.Yesterday i had to check my zero on it and also took along my .243 that wears a 2.5-10 S&B Zenith to try out some new loads,any way had the S&B set on 10 and the Leupy on 10 the difference in mag between the two was startling,i screwed the Leupy upto 14 and even then i dont think it was quite as much mag as the S&B on 10.Anyboby else noticed differeces like this, do the Americans measure differently to the Europeans when it comes to magnification,i just can't see why there should be so much difference,or have i got a duff scope, it functions fine on the zoom so i can't see that there could be anything wrong with it.
