This is my first THR thread, so thanks for reading!!
I am presently in the market for a rifle scope to be mounted on a .308. I am wishing to develop my "long range" skills (700-1000 yards); mostly benchrest scenarios, but possibly some hunting.
I have about $1,000-1,300 to spend.
My "requirements":
1) QUALITY glass... amazingly clear, dawn-to-dusk coverage, et cetra
2) variable power... I want the high end to be x20/25/32/36.
3) illuminated reticle... mil-dot (or similar) to help with range acquisition
4) 30mm or higher main tube and highly adjustable turrets (zero stop?)
I have been reading THR threads on the scope subject. The three scopes which hardly ever get bad reviews are:
1) Zeiss (Diavari VM/V)
2) Leupold (Mark 4 LR/T)
3) Nightforce
***Schmidt & Bender excluded
I have done some homework, but I really need some expert advice on the subject. !!!! Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!
