We recently had a discussion. A young man missed badly from about 125 meters. Badly. After checking the weapon, we discovered that he had dialed up the magnification from 2X to 6X (zeroed at 2X). There was a school of thought that this was responsible for the miss. Now I just don't see this. In my mind, it doesn't make much difference. Am I wrong?

Not at 125 meters with anything better than a Tasco.
LR, I think that the M3 you mentioned is the best bet for 90% of the marksmen, and is reasonably affordable.
