So I just got a .257 Wby that I plan on using mostly for Deer, and Antelope with the occasional Elk and Sheep hunt if the wife ends up really liking it. I've already got a Meopta 3-12x50 that I'm considering mounting on it. Considering that I won't be shooting this gun past 500 and will be trying to not shoot past 400 considering the downrange energy at that distance, do you guys think 12x is enough for big game out here? I've got almost the same scope on my 300WSM and it's plenty for Elk but I was only concerned about what a pronghorn or smaller deer would be like in the scope at 400 yds. Thanks for the advice guys.
