Going to setup a 7mm Rem Mag rifle for deer and occasional elk and such. 

Shots will range from 50 - 500 yards so I was thinking of something a little more magnification than a 3-9x. Maybe 4-12x buy not higher than 16x is needed and I want the minimum magnification to be 4x or less. 

I'd like the scope to be fairly lightweight too (i.e., not heavier than 16-18 oz) want to keep it to $600 or less.  Any suggestions on specific scopes and magnification suggestions?

Thanks,
Mike

Perhaps the Meopta MeoPro 4-12 X 50. It meets your specs pretty well.
