The pics I google foo'd in my search for info.

Finding a set of comparative pics that had both magnification and distance was a bear. There are thousands of pics, but most are not labeled.

People also have a tendency to aim at non-targets. You can't judge size looking at you neighbors back door handle..

Most of the good pics were from snipershide forum, lots of long range shooting. But even there, they posted a lot of 32x++ @ 1K which is not easy to "down size" to something useful.

Here are a 14x @ 900 yds. It tells me, if I don't shake to much, I can see a man size target.
