I recently bought a 22-250 and now I have to choose the right scope for it. My lack of experience brought me here. The rifle will be use for coyotes mostly. Some target shooting but this is not why I bought the gun. Since the 22-250 is not legal for big game ( deer) I'll use my .270.
Where I hunt in Canada, most of the hunting is done in the fields with a wood neer buy. Shots are usually between 50 and 200 yrd MAX (for coyotes) My .270 have a 1.5x6 scope and I barelly use it over 4x. Most of my deers were killed at 3-4x.
I'm worried that buying a 18x scope will only lead me to some too big optic, for relativly close shots. Do I settle for 4-12 taking advantage of the 4x and the bigger opening/ more lights? Or stick with the 6-18 ?!| Perhaps you have other scope suggestions for my kind of setup/varmint
any comments are appreciated.
