[QUOTE="ogreshooter, post: 464144, member: 16647"] From my experience, Sightron 6.5-20x50 has great-excellent glass, tracking is right on, and I have shot my 308 to 500 yards by dialing, and mine always returns to my 100 yard zero. I have about $700 in that scope, but I think they are a little cheaper now. I also just bought (and am awaiting) a Vortex Viper PST 4-16 for my LRH 300 WinMag. I am using a 20 moa base (still not sure on rings). I have read many reviews, and my trigger finger is itching to pull the trigger with that glass on it. So, long story short, I have 3 sightron scopes on a wide variety of calibers. The ONLY reason I went with the Viper PST is that the reticle matches the adjustment and it is FFP. If I find that the PST is EVERYTHING I have ever needed/wanted in a reasonably priced scope (under a grand), I will likely buy the 6-24 PST for my 308 and keep the Sightron for a rifle for my wife. Other choices I have heard, but have no experience on, I will share. Nikon is supposedly good glass for the price, I just dont own one. I have OLD leupold scopes, and they are OK, but not my first choice. [/QUOTE]
