I will also take the rifle to the range occasionally to shoot, but nothing over 400 yards. I have decided on a 2-7 power scope but need help picking which brand to go with. The choices are; burris fullfield E1, leupold vx freedom, sig sauer whiskey 3, vortex crossfire II, or the Nikon p3. Any input from members who have experience with any of these would be greatly appreciated, or if anyone knows of any other 2-7 power scopes in the $200 range that I'm overlooking.
Best advice I can give is this.
Safe up a lil longer and buy the vortex viper pst gen 2 1-6 and pair it with the Leopold mark ar scope mount.
That scope mount combo will be perfect for your needs.
It's the exact combo I use on my 12 inch and 12.5 inch grendels.
Nice low power for quick snap shots are just up close shots and plenty of power at 6 too shoot steel targets out too 600 yards are hunt game out too 300 yards.
Nice simple hashmark reticle for holdovers and also has a red dot feature you can turn on and off.
