Shopping for a scope for my 300 Win Mag. I originally purchased a Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14x44 SF, but I discovered that 3.5" was not enough eye relief (almost). 4" or more of eye relief seems about right
I've also decided that was too big a scope so. I'd like to stay in the 3-9x40mm or smaller objective range.
Currently considering.

The Burris Timberline intrigues. Eye relief seems plenty. I like the size. 32mm seems a little small for 14x, but I guess in low light I could just crank the power down. The tube seems a little short, so mounting might be interesting.
Anybody familiar with the Timberlines? Are they rugged and hold zero under recoil?
