3-9 adjustable. Much more versatile. Reliability isn't much of an issue. A good scope isn't going to break unless you beat it.

Fixed 4 is for .22's and shite.

I'm here with this.

I would only go with a fixed power scope on a centerfire if I was covering a fairly small engagement area (prairie dogs/coyotes).

I guess the other issue would be, low light conditions, I could probably get a higher resolution fixed for less than a comparable variable, but still, it would be better to spend the extra and get a little more scope than you might need, but one that could be used a lot more.

Fixed are great for target shooting, though.
