Just picked up my new rifle today!!

Can't wait to take it to the range tomorrow, I got a Leupold vari x III (3.5-10x) with it.

Is that enough scope for shots out to 1000 yards??

Yeah, I know I won't be making too many of those, but is 10x o.k.?
 
10x should be fine with 14x about the max I would go personally. On a hot day much more power than this will enhance the mirage effect affecting your accuracy at longer ranges. The 3.5x gives a good wide field of view for shooting on the move. As you get into higher upper end powers, so goes the lower number and a decent field of view.
 
Travis, there's still time to get an elk tag for this year, providing that you've been in the state for at least 6 months (I think you have). Time to get in the woods!
