I am in the market for a new scope and want to get a good product this time around. I figure it will be used 80% at the range and 20% chasing down varmints. This will be home mostley on my 223 but it might do some time on my 308 and 17hmr. Here are the models I am looking at. New Burris 4.5-14x42 Fullfield II Tactical Rifle Scope Leupold 12x40 FX-III $569 I really would like a model with target turrets. Have a bushnell 3200 Elite 10x and love the turrets. Also I know Leopold has a reputation for a high price. I am willing to pay the price for a great customer service center and good warranty.

If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

No not really, I would be happy with just a plain duplex reticle.
Well I think I have at least narrowed it down to the Leupolds and Nikon. This is a hard decision. I think I am going to head to Pro Bass and Gander and see if I see them in person. Edited by area51 |

I just mounted a fixed 10x SS on my .308 and I like it. $300 scope and you can start shooting!!! |

I mounted a fixed 16x SS on one of my .308 rifles and to be truthful with you, it is my all out Cold Shot favorite. $300.00 is very cheap.
