Having a tough time deciding on Nightforce, for new FN A1A SPR bolt action 308. 3.5x15 or 5.5x22? I would like to know from someone who has the 3.5x15 or 5.5x22, if you can see 30 cal bullet holes at 200 yards? I understand the short range limitations of the 5.5. At the present time I can only shoot out to 200 yards. I would like to clearly see the groups at 200 yards without a spotting scope... can you see the groups on paper with 15x?

I have a leupold mk4 4.5x14x50 on my spr A5. I can't really see the holes at 200 yards. My spotting scope is somewhere around 30x or so and I can see them just fine. I doubt a nightforce 15x optic would be much different than my 14x. YMMV but thats my .02 :)
