I see post about NightForce and Trijicon. Both are heavy and not very compact for a mod 7 to be shot at less than 300 yards. Why not a 2.5-8x36 vx3 HD or a Swarovski 3-9x36 or 2.5-10x42. You simply don't need more than that and you won't be twisting knobs at less that 300 yardsBuilding a Model 7 in 260 Rem.
Wanting recommendations on compact style scopes.
This rifle will be my primary deer rifle. Shots less than 300 yards.
Budget around $1000
Thanks for any advice
Gonna look at that.Leupold doesn't give a 1" option on the VX-R. I agree with your sentiment, @Spitpatch , but that reticle is worth it.
Intrigued by your suggestion, I took a look at this scope. BINGO!....Vortex Viper PST Gen II 2-10x32. $800. Light, clear and perfect for your distances. Illuminated reticle for low light too. I prefer this scope on my 6.5 Creedmoor over my longer distance but heavy Nightforce SHV 4-14x56.
