[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 898333, member: 74902"] # 1 - - Side focus vs. front Object focus - (Get a side focus. Don't want to be messing with a front focus in the field.) #2 -- - FFP vs. SFP -- (Lots of preferences here, but if you get the one you can't seem to get used to you will not like it. I way way way prefer SFP. But some folks really like FFP) #3 -- - Others I didn't list? *( Glass quality. With good glass you can see better with a 3-9x than a 5-20x.) * ( Ranging reticle. I prefer MOA. Vortex and Sightron make good ones. And of course Nightforce is the king, but not absolutely necessary.) #4 -- - Scope power 4-16x or 5-20x, or similar variables ( Depends on the expected range for shots. 5-20x would be good unless shots are expected to be 100 yards or less. Higher magnification also helps with accuracy when doing load development etc.) #5 - Zero Stops (Really nice to have but not critical.) [/QUOTE]
