I want a good scope for bench shooting, mostly 200yds and got it narrowed down to the Vortex Crossfire 4-16x50(around $280) or the 6-24x50(around $300). My primary reason for these scopes are; 30mm tube, I already have a Larue Mt for it and cost. Plenty of power either way. My question, for the extra $20 I can get the 24x, is that too much power?

Yeah I would opt for more power, then again I tend to overscope my rifles. I like being able to see 22/223 hits on paper @ 200yrds and 24x works great for that.Anderson lower with ALG Combat trigger and Ergo F43 stock:
18" 1:8 6.5 grendel barrel, 13" troy alpha free float, Mbuis, PA 4-14x44 FFP ACSS scope.
SAA lower(Form 1 in process)
16" 1:9 5.56 barrel, A2 sightpost, GI Handguard, Eotech XPS2.0 w/ 1.5-5x magnifier.
Anderson Pistol lower:
16" 1:8 300BLK Free Float, Eotech XPS2.0
6" 9mm with 7" free float and KAK muzzle device, Magpull MBUIS

So, you are covered with the 6 - 24 X. I do not think you will like being limited to 16X for your purposes.
