I went with the Vortex HST 4-16x44 with the MOA reticle.
It is heavier than my current Buckmaster scope (20.8oz vs 14oz), but I am switching from. Burris PEPR mount (8.5oz) to an Aero Precision Ultralight (3.1oz), so the weight of the total packages should come out very close to the same. No sacrifice of the deer hunting scope, but gives me room to grow if I decide to go further into long range shooting.
It's supposed to be delivered Monday, and the new mount is due later in the week. Hopefully I'll be able to make time at the range with it soon.
