Which magnification do you prefer on the Simmons Pro Diamond?
2x is plenty for turkey hunting.
I have a 2x and a 4x. I like the 2x better but the 4x is ok too. I don't know if they still make the 2x though.
All I can find is the 4x and 1.5x. The 4x is $30 cheaper but that seems like too much magnification...
Love my 4x32 mm

It isn't, have killed them from a few steps to 40 yards with it

Run the 1.5-5 but stays on 2x unless scoping cutover birds.
The 1.5 -5 , you can always increase the magnification ..... you will find you will keep it on the low power most all the time... for early morning breaking light you want low magnification, draw more light ...
I don't have a pro diamond, but have a few nikon turkey pros that are 1.5 x5 and also one that's 2x7 and a Leupold Nwtf 2x7. I rarely ever turn them up from the lowest magnification. IMO I would also choose the 1.5 x5....
I have the 4x and it seems to work great. I have not killed a turkey with it, but Mr. Coyote had a fatal run in with it.
