[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1600168, member: 87243"] Looking for a scope to put on a lighter build I'm putting together. I don't need anything fancy, I would be fine with a 1" tube, though I'm not opposed to a 30mm. I don't need high magnification either, I have pretty decent eyes, so anything with a max magnification of 10x-16x would be fine. I do however prefer to dial my elevation for shots, so a resetable zero turret would be preferred, and good tracking. Capped or exposed turrets don't matter much, though if they are exposed I would want a zero stop, which usually comes with a higher price tag. I have shots out to about 1000+ or -, so would want 25-30 or so usable MOA up, so 50 MOA or more total adjustment preferably. And I would prefer variable magnification, I hunt in thick timber at times so a strait 10x would be challenging. So to summarize.... -Max magnification 10x-16x -If capped turrets, zero resetable -If exposed turrets, zero stop -1" or 30mm, doesn't matter -50 MOA or more total adjustment -Sub 20 oz -Sub $400 I know this isn't going to be top end glass, But I don't need it. Maybe eventually I will be able to afford better, but not at this time. So, what's your ideas? [/QUOTE]
