Which scope for which rifle?
I have two rifle I plan to use for two very different purposes.
One is a .308 Savage 110FP tactical with a laminated wood stock (I believe the stock is off a Model 12). I plan to use this rifle as a bechrest shooter. The other rifle is a .308 CZ 550 with a adjustible dual function trigger. This rifle I plan to use more as a hunting rifle.
The two scopes I have are a Leupold Rifleman 4-12x40 and an IOR Valdada 2.5-10x42. My question is, which scope would be best suited for which rifle?
The most obvious idea that comes to mind is that a bechrest gun would require more magnification so the Leupold would be best for the Savage. However, a Leupold just 'feels' 9at least to me) more appropriate for a hunting rifle. What do you guys think?
