Sounds interesting. Got a link to the course of fire?
So I gotta ask: Why limit yourself to 1-inch circles? Why not a 4-inch (or more) circle that you can see, and score based on x ring hits? Not trying to be a jerk here, but given what you describe, I'd change targets before I changed scopes. What are we missing?

Honestly I think either of those is death by 1,000 cuts for your purpose UNLESS you are sure you can win (and that’s never a guarantee). Any time my crosshairs have obscured the target I simply dial back the power till the dot shows.
I have this burris. I love it. It's riding on my 17HMR for now. So i haven't tried any long shots. But i can hit clays fragments with it at 100 yards. https://www.burrisoptics.com/scopes...es-series/fullfield-e1-riflescope-6.5-20x50mm
I hear you there. I get the same way. I have a 6x24x50 on my axis .223. It's a UTG. I was going to put the Burris on it. But the UTG works great. And it has an illuminated recticle if i ever go night hunting for yotes.I am still struggling for an answer that satisfies myself, I believe the 6.5-20 will fill the need adequately but my mind still wants the 6-24 and I hate second guessing myself.
That sounds like what I would most likely be considering.Weaver T 36x is very popular with the short to mid range BR shooters
They are likely within everyone's budget.
LoonWulf do you know the little black and orange dots that come on the Shoot N-C targets? Well basically that is what they are using for targets at 200 and 300 yards.

might be a good option for you. Athlons reticles aren't really "bench rest" fine, but that might be a good option for you.
