[QUOTE="V-MAX, post: 13913, member: 436"] Hi, greetings from Scotland. At present I am using a 8/56 Schmidt & Bender on my .22/250 heavy varmint. The optics are superb and it is also very useful when the light starts to fade. For small pests out to 200-250 yards it is excellent but past 250yards the crosshairs almost blot out the target altogether. I am considering moving the S+B on to a 25-06 and purchasing another scope for the .22/250. I would like to be able to zoom in to around 15-20 power but also able to zoom out to 6-7 in the fading light. I also like the idea of 'target turrets' that remove the bullet drop factor. Could anyone recommend a make or model that has given good results ? Light gathering, zero holding and a crosshair that will not disappear at dusk or dawn are most important. I have a budget of between $600-£700 I would be very grateful for any replies on this subject as knowledge of long range optics is very limited. Thanks for any replies in advance Cheers, [/QUOTE]
