Should I select a scope with a fixed zoom or a variable zoom?

This depends on what you plan to use the scope for and on your personal preference. Variable zoom scopes are much more versatile, as they allow adjustments from minimum to maximum. This means they are suitable for both short and long term range shooting. However, fixed zoom scopes are easier to use and oftentimes are more durable than their variable zoom alternatives.
