[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 836561, member: 307"] Redbone, A good scope in the areas you're looking (power & price) is the Nikon BuckMaster series. They usually run a little over $300 but are good for what you need. They make a 4.5-14X40 with side parallax adjustment that is a pretty nice scope. A friend that I did load development for has/had one on his Stevens 200 in .22-250. What little I used/looked through it, it appeared to be clear glass and tracked well. They also make a 6-18X40. I have one of these mounted on a Savage 112 in .300WinMag. It has held up to the recoil, tracks well and is repeatable. Mine is not so great for hunting as I have the fine crosshairs with target dot.
