Rifle scope question!

Long Range

 

For the price Vortex can give you a good scope; personally I like their BDC reticle a but most important is what you like and what your budget is. Good luck

700 yards with a 9 power scope???? Is that on deer or paper off a bench???? Carlos Hathcock watch out.......

 

Both. Bench and with bipod. Was ringing steel all weekend between 400 and 700 yards with a 9x on the top end.

 

It's not difficult and no feat. A good load and rifle makes things real easy.

Vortex Viper HS LR Long Range FFP 6-24x50mm

 

I think I'd have to pull the trigger on this guy, not a huge fan of the 50mm look but that's probably just me. I think she's going for around 9 bills.

Just bought a vortex viper hs 4-16x44. Perdy happy w my purchase and its performance.I have it mounted on a Ruger M77(tang safety) in .270win. I'm primarily an archery hunter so learning the ballistics game has been a curve but its shooting perdy darn good. The guys at spotsmans in phx were a ton of help

i don't shoot a bow any more . not sure how 600 yards with a 30-06 compares to a certain distance with a bow (90yards??). it takes a good everything ( trigger ammo rifle scope ect) for 600 yards. i have shot against guys shooting a factory 30-06 in competion at 600 yards. their success depended on all of those things. in no particular order.
