Viper Report post Posted October 31, 2020 Check out Red Hawk Rifles. They often sell demos for a good price, like new condition. Last year I picked up a Zeiss V4 4-16x50, illuminated reticle for $800. Looks brand new. I put it on my new CA Ridgeline...love it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoss50 Report post Posted October 31, 2020 The meopte optika 6 scopes are supposed to be a great bang for the buck. I personally have a couple burris veracity 3x15x50 scopes that I really like and are worth a look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Rabbit Report post Posted October 31, 2020 If you will be turning turrets, based on these results, one might avoid Leupold, all Vortex except the Razor, IOR. SWFA has a good rep, but none were listed on the test. https://www.snipershide.com/precision-rifle/scope-tracking-test-results-2020/ Under $1k, you might look at the SWFA, Tract Toric, Bushnell LRHS/LRTS, Nightforce SHV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nighthawk Report post Posted October 31, 2020 My vote is sightron . They are great scopes with good glass and trac well. Well used in bench rest community and I have one on my 300ultra and love it. I used to be leupold guy and still own them but from here on out it’s sightron for me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nighthawk Report post Posted October 31, 2020 Being honest though 32 power is a little much for hunting rifle but I do use it as my spotter lol. . The 24 would be perfect . For perspective this is threw 15x56 swaro’s. To be fair I don’t have phone scope just holding against the scope/binos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loboscout Report post Posted November 18, 2020 Leupold MK 5 3.6-18 is my choice for long range hunting rifles. The Nightforce SHV and NX8 are good choices as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
