Why do FT shooters use high magnification scopes?
The high magnification allows the shooter to use the adjustable objective to rangefind. Range finding is the act of determining the distance to the target. The distance can be estimated by eye but using the adjustable objective can most times estimate the distance with in a yard of the actual distance. Knowing the distance to the target is key to scoring a hit. The higher the magnification scopes give more precise range finding capabilities. The scope must have very good clarity at the higher magnification to get the best rangefinding capabilities.
