I DO NOT CARE FOR A FIXED 2X AT DISTANCES MUCH OVER 50 YARDS. I HAVE NO HUNTING EXPERIENCE WITH RED DOTS AT OVER 50 YARDS. A VARIABLE WITH UP TO AT LEAST 6X IS WHAT I PREFER.
^What he said.
I use variable power Nikon Force XR's on everything that I shoot beyond 50 yards or so. They've recently been discontinued, but you can still find them occasionally on Ebay and Gunbroker, usually still under $300.
