[QUOTE="Dialing Long Distance, post: 2091606, member: 86692"] I put a Sig BDX set up on a new Tikka Roughtech in 7 mag this past fall for hunting. It’s a 4.5-14x44, came with the kilo1000 rangefinder. For a budget minded hunting scope, I’m super happy with it. It’s not a target scope, not intended to be, but for hunting, I’ve had very good luck with it so far. I use hand loads that are consistent, so the ballistic app works really well for its intended use. I used this to take a whitetail at 377 yards a few months ago. It will range out to 800 yards, which, for hunting, is plenty far enough for most folks. You can usually find them on sale at Cameraland NY. That’s where I got mine. At the time, the combo was on sale for about $480 shipped. I liked it so much, I bought another one for my daughter’s Creedmoor. Not sure if the scope weight, but the Tikka, loaded, with the scope is 9.3 pounds on the bathroom scale, without the bipod. [/QUOTE]
