Currently collecting parts for a rifle I am working on. Sprucing up a run of the mill 1943 M91/30. This is strictly a "because I can" rifle. Already have the stock and bipod. It is also getting a Timney trigger, J-Meck low profile scope mount, and associated turned down bolt.
For the life of me, I can't decide on glass. I really don't want to go over $300. I like target turrets. I have been thinking about putting a Bushnell Elite 3200 10x40 on it. But, without being able to look at one locally, it is kind of a tough decision. Millett has a decent looking 4-16x50 that is right about at $300. Again, tough call because I can't look at one locally. I want a scope that has good quality glass, and can withstand less than desirable weather (rain/snow). What would you folks pick? Does anyone have experience on either of those scopes?
