I'm an curious kind of guy and I want to see what my SR's edge looks like at various stages of life. What is the recommended scope for this. I see @Mark uses a 500x... My son has a $30 jobby and it is pretty useless at 60x, let alone at the 200x it is supposed to be good for. I prefer to buy the right gear from the start rather than buy a cheap one that will "get me going" and be replaced later on.
Any advice would be appreciated.
