Need help with scope selection

[Lastrites]

Mentioned above you should take a look at the SWFA's new 2.5-10 Ultralight hunting scope with BDC reticle, though it's a bit more than your budget,. I have one of these on a light weight hunting grendel, glass is really good, it's like 9.5oz, pretty compact, with the right mounts it can do double duty as a carrier handle and I'd buy it again for low recoiling rifle like the grendel. Likely wouldn't use this on a rifle that has some kick though as the somewhat short eye relief (3.35 - 2.56) could be a potential issue of getting scoped, not a problem w/the grendel.
