    Scope Power

    What does the magnification rating or power on a scope actually mean? Is it a certain distance one can see with each 1X. How does that actually work in numbers?

    A 2X scope would make the object appear two times as close. So 2X at 100 yards it would be like shooting 50 yards at 1X. 4X=four times as close, etc.
    Please, calm down.
