[QUOTE="GermanGuy, post: 1264785, member: 99477"] Hello everyone, i am having trouble deciding between 2 used scopes at a pawnshop.. they have a Nikon- MONARCH 5-20-44SF MATTE BDC ([I]BRA13202[/I]) for $285 and a Nikon Prostaff 7 3-12x42 for $300 the rifle it is going on will a Savage fcp sr 308 20" the reason why its between those 2 is while buying ammo i looked throu there used scope section and the Monarch got my interest, quick online search and price seemd good at first so its on layaway then i saw the box that looked old and found out it is a discontinued model and i dont know if it still keeps up with newer $300 scopes ... its really clear and sharp but when i was about to leave i noticed the prostaff 7 which seems to be similar or better from 5-12 power as in i see more then just what i aim at it seemed bigger on same power setting , newer, 30mm tube but it stops on 12 vs 20 . my use for now is 100-300y target shooting but i want to be able to try 600 or more if i ever get there without the need of a new scope rightaway thank you for your time [/QUOTE]
