I don't have much experience with scopes so I'm asking for suggestions on which ones to look for. It's to sit on a 375 Ruger Guide Gun. I'll be hunting for large moose, caribou, perhaps bear if the opportunity presents itself. The longest I would shoot game would be a sheep or goat within 300 yds as I know my limitations and it's not likely I will fire hundreds of rounds to become a sharp shooter. So the magnification does not need to be high, I am thinking 6x tops and leaning more to around 3 or 4x.
Priorities order:
Price < $500, hence another reason for fixed power
Durability, it'll take it's fair share of 375 recoil, bumps, and extreme weather
Compactness, (<35mm bell) thinking this will help durability
Field of view, I hate having to pan around aimlessly to spot what I just saw
I'd like to know what to keep an eye out for on the used market. Thanks!
