[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 789905, member: 1940"] I wouldn't use either, and none of the scopes you mention are light weights. I use a 2.5-10 NF on a .270 WSM. No problem with this scope on marmots out to 600 yards. Weight 19oz. The other I would use is a S&B Klassic by Hollands. They have Hollands great ART reticle and .25 MOA turrets. Just add another grand to the NF. These scopes have a better reputation for accurate and repeatable turrets and bomb-proof construction than the Swaro's, and the S&B will have as good or better glass, Still at 19 oz. They will hold up to the considerable recoil your little .300 is going to generate. FWIW, I use a S&B 4-16 PMII with Hollands ART reticle on a long range varmint rifle. On 16 power I have sufficient magnification to shoot marmots out to 1400 yards. [/QUOTE]
