I prefer the med/standard duplex for field use and hunting...the fine version sometimes gets lost in the branchs and weeds while hunting for me.....I think you will enjoy the added power of the 4-12 and the AO is needed on a accurate gun and I've heard the 17 is doing well for accuracy...the AO can be preset for the general distance you will see durring the hunting shooting and be used without resetting most all the time......and when you want the final little bit of accuracy and clarity at the target you can fine tune the AO and after a little while you do it without thinking and part of the routine.......good luck and good shooting!!
