4 For Farm?

4 For Farm? Who uses a fixed 4mag for farmyard?
I've been using my 3-9x40 diamondback on my R10 at the local dairy farm for ferals, corvids, rats etc it's been good but I'd really like to lower my scope hight to get better eye alignment and get better depth of field from a smaller objective., being as I only really use 4mag I thought a 2-7x32/33/35 would fit the bill. Then I started looking at perhaps a 4x32 and I'm really wondering if a trip back to the start (my first scope was a Nikon prostaff 4x32 np) is in order and forget the ballistic/mildot reticle, & just go Plex/#4, super simple no frills, no AO, no IR, no zoom, no hassles or distraction.. just a fixed fantastic like on my evo. although that is a 6mag, but I tend to use it in the field more....., mmmmm.
So who uses 4mag & Plex/#4 ret to great affect in barns, around sheds, above feed pens & surrounding trees from 5-30yrds max on a .22 pcp? Is it worthwhile me going down this route? Or am I hoping for too much?
Thanks all

I always use 4 mag for farm yard work.
My scopes are 3-9x40 and 2-7x32.
I've considered the Nikon 4X32 for exactly the reasons you are.
Its a 50 yard parallax and has a duplex ret which should be ok.
My issue is that I think the turrets are 1 click = 1/4" at 50 yards (not 1/4 MOA at 50 yards) which I don't find adjusts finely enough for me. If you can prove me wrong on that I'll be buying one myself.
