So you magnify your scopes up to where you can't hold the crosshairs steady?
I usually only use the highest power at the range. It does show the wiggle of the cross hairs more, but it doesn't cause them. The wiggle is always there, you just don't see it with less magnification.
My favorite scope is a Burris Fullfield II. It has ballistic compensation reticle and is plenty clear. It is actually a little clearer than my Vortex Viper at the same power setting. 3x-9x was my preference but lately all I can find locally is 4x-12x but it works. I keep it set on the lowest power when I am hunting. If there is an opportunity to shoot longer range I turn it up to max. Not to see better, but because that is the power setting that the ballistic reticle is subtending the proper distance.
