So, what I have gleaned so far is a decent scope doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg. There are certain features that I want to look for: 2-7 is adequate and 3-9 may be all I will ever need; the 40 is a good number for the object lense; eye relief is a must (it should be easy and comfortable to look through); FOV (and more magnification decreases the FOV); excellent low light transmission (for dawn and dusk conditions); and quality turrets. The scope brands that are probably in my price range are Leupold, Vortex, and Nikon. Also, get quality rings and don't go cheap. And I want a rangefinder, because it would help me with having a better sense for distances. I think that's a decent list, but maybe not exhaustive. Thanks so much to you and many others for your suggestions!!! So, I learned a little yesterday, and I took notes. With that said, there's so much more for me to learn about scopes. So, for those who participated in this thread your contributions were not in vain!![]()
Kudos to you!
