[QUOTE="Buano, post: 673888, member: 21641"] If none of your shots will be close-up shots where deer suddenly appear, you can get away with the higher magnification of a 6.5-20. If you might need to use this gun for closer work, the 4.5-14 should be your maximum magnification. If I was building a dedicated "Bean field rifle" on a budget, I would look for a used scope and save a few hundred dollars. For a dedicated bean-field rifle I would lean towards Nightforce but any of the scopes you mention (and a few others) would work well. Actually, I would likely put a Leupold VX7 3.5-14x56 on it since I have one of those sitting about 6' from me & it's never been on a rifle. (I really should sell the scope since I haven't used it.)
