I want to upgrade some of my riflescopes. I want to first start by changing the Leupold 4.5-14x50 Vari-III on my .300 Win. Magnum. After reading many posts over the last several months I finally have it out of my head that I need to mount a telescope (6-24x50) on my rifle for hunting.
As I reviewed many posts I believe I would like to buy a Kahles MultiZero for the .300. It appears the sample list has some good deals right now. I'm having a tough time trying to decide between two scopes. Could I get your inputs?

For a 300WM, I think I'd go with the 30mm. Seems they are built a little tougher. Also, I think 50mm is as big as I'd go with the objective bell! Which rifle and model of 300WM do you have?
FWIW, I have a Kahles CL 3-10X50 mounted on my BAR 30-06 and its amazing! I also have a 2-7X36 CL mulitzero on a 700 mtn LSS in .260 and I think I'm going to really like it as well. Edited by Tip69 - February/14/2009 at 16:24 |

+1 on what Tip and Cyborg said.
A side focus on a 4-12 variable is not really needed; 14 or above I would say yes. |

Although I'm OK with 1" I prefer the 30mm tubes, BTW those are good prices!

The 30mm tube is a better deal.

I have a Browning A-Bolt II with the BOSS. I was leaning towards the 30mm prior to posting. I appreciate your responses.
