[QUOTE="Buano, post: 452944, member: 21641"] Leupold VX3 4.5-14x50 illuminated duplex reticle with the CDS turret. This is much lighter than the Nightforce but will gather much more light than the 2.5-10x32 Nightforce scopes. Weight matters on a hunt high in the mountains — but so does seeing your target. My second choice would be a Nightforce 3.5-15x50. Great scope, just a bit heavy for mountain climbing. Nightforce is supposed to be releasing a Velocity 1,000 reticle in the 3.5-15x50 in January 2011. That or the Horus reticle would be my top reticle choices so you would be prepared for an almost instantaneous shot if you don't have time to crank turrets. Swarovski, Zeiss, Kahles, Schmidt & Bender & others make great scopes but start your search with the two above, learn their performance & then make others beat the performance of these two. [/QUOTE]
