[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 460165, member: 10391"] I think all quality scopes that have power ranges of 4-16 or greater will work well to a 1000 yards on game. To me what's as important as the power range is the type of reticle and the weight of the scope. Nightforce is a great scope no question there, but in my opinion it's like bolting a tank on top of your rifle. The 3-15 weighs 30oz and on a carry rifle that's a lot. Also I like the hash marks on the reticle to match the come up's which the Nightforce has. The Virper PST FFP fits into my criteria very well. The 4-16 at 22oz with MOA reticle and MOA come up's is going on a rifle currently being built. The rifle will not be use beyond 700 yards on game. There are lots of choices out there. Took me quite awhile to decide the Viper PST was the scope that would fit my needs for less than a thousand bucks. Good luck on your search. [/QUOTE]
