I am looking for a new scope for a target rifle. The scope will be going on my .308 for now for target use only. In a few months it will be moved to a 6mmBR I am having built. The 6BR will be used primarily for target shooting, but it will also be used once or twice a year for varmint hunting. I am looking at the Weaver 24x Target model and the Super Sniper 20x. I will be shooting mostly from 100-600 yards, with the occasional 1000yard shoot. Which model do you think would better suit my purpose?  Thanks for all your help.

Not sure which would suit you best but couple of differences, the SS has quite of bit more adjustment range than the Weaver. Weaver website quotes 60 MOA of adjustment where as the SS has approx 100 MOA. You might need this larger adjustment range when shooting long range. The SS has a Mil-Dot reticle, the Weaver is not available with the Mil-Dot. I have a SS 20X that I use strictly for target shooting and I am very pleased with its performance.
