I am looking for a scope for my project rifle that will be used for long-distance shooting (600-1000yds).
I really dont want to spend $1000 and up, so I stumbled upon the Bushnell Elite 4200's. A mil-dot is a must for me, now here comes the hard part:
Do I need a 50mm lens w/ 30mm tube? or is the 40mm/1'' just fine?
What exactly is the adjustable objective for? especially if the scope has a side parralax adjustment.
Are target turrets really necessary? I would like the dials and learn how to get proficient with them.
These are the scopes I am looking at.

So please help me out. The only scopes I have are a Leupold VX-I 3-9x40mm and a Bushnell .22 rimfire 4x32mm
