[QUOTE="canoetrpr, post: 859539, member: 71869"] Kirby and others. I'm in the same position. I'm interested in your recommendations on particular brands and models of scopes that do have turrets and a zero stop, with good optics and are a good value a like the SWFA scopes you listed. While I too plan only shooting out to 500 yards or so, I simply prefer an uncluttered view in the reticle and think it will be easier for me to dial rather than hold over. I like the 4-16x for the range even though a lower magnification would be perfectly fine in the field on large game. Sightron seems to make nice scopes for the price. What do you think of them? (Unfortunately they don't have a SIII in 4-16x - just 3-10x and then 6-24x). Nightforce seems real nice but expensive. I was hoping to spend in the $1k range. Zeiss Conquest HD5 3-15x with turrets and Zero Stop seems nice. I don't like the fact that it does not have hold over marks for wind. Swarovski Z3 seems decent also. Really like the 4W reticle. Don't like the fact that they have no parallax adjustment. Vortex Viper PST seems to have it all but seems to be getting a reputation for scopes failing. Would really like to hear your opinions on these and others. [/QUOTE]
