Also consider these:
1- your field of view. If you are looking down tight lanes 100-200yds at feeders then a 3.5x is good. If you are scanning larger fields for coyote/pigs and need to engage multiple targets then a lower basemag is better for your FOV

2- When you double your zoom you half your resolution. Either get a higher basemag to keep original imagery or a higher quality scope thay holds resolution better. Going cheap really hurts you here
384res at 3.5x is now 192res at 7x (2x basemag)

Hey pickle… so you are saying the thermion 2 XQ50 would be good for 100-200yds? My dad is looking for something similar around $4k.

Btw, videos are badass
