I'm gonna upgrade a few hunting scopes this year. Hogs/deer/coyotes. probaby average 50-200 yard shot dusk and dawn hunting. Maybe on a "perfect set up" 550 yards in good light. I want a lited reticle dot but enough magnification to take a shot when only part of the animal is exposed. I DONT want >18oz big honking scope on a 51/2 lb rifle. And does anyone think the CDS option would be of any value at these ranges? Am thinking of 1 in 3-9 x 40 and another in 3-9 x50. thanks.
