@JudgeHolden10 it really is a trade off balanced by what you want to do with them. All the following are better at the expense to magnification - field of view, exit pupil (light transmission), etc. Does the extra 2x give you more of what you want compared to less of the above. A buddy of mine went 10x, because he wanted to count tines without scoping with his rifle...10x for him was more important than the other (safer too). For me (7x42) brighter and field of view were more important than power (again, I have spotting scopes). No right or wrong here - just what is better for your need.
Regardless, Meopta is good glass. Buy what fits your needs. You will be happy.
