What is your intention for the rifle? What's the maximum range you're going to shoot? Target or hunting or both? I've had a few Sightrons, still have one, a fixed 36X. It's good for a target scope. I have it in 20 MOA bases and can't zero it any closer than 400 yards with my 6.5-284, which is fine because I shoot that rifle strictly at 800-1000 yards.
I'm running a Millett LRS-1 6-25X56 35 mm tube on my 24" bbl Grendel. It's a massive scope and a bit much for the rifle, but it has 140 MOA of travel to get me as far as I want to go. It tracks good and the glass is OK.
I agree with LRRPF2 though, you don't need that much magnification on a Grendel. 16X is plenty.
