Looking to start using turrets more. I have no confidence in my leupolds. What optic has the best reliable repeatable turrets? Hoping to stay under 1k


Edit: had a few questions about my leupold comment. I love my leupolds they are on almost every hunting gun of mine. I've got a few mark 4's with tmr that I love. Rock solid scopes if I don't dial much. I'm starting to use turrets more and they don't seem to have the precision when dialing.

There's plenty $1000 and under scopes that track well.
Swfa's
Vortex pst 1&2
The nikon fx1000 I've heard good things about
I've tested the new arken optics scopes, they track great, I'm curious about how they handle their warranty. Hopefully they stick around the scope business and grow.

This should help you get started on your own research. Just remember, no scope or manufacture is error free, there's always some that slip through quality control. Some companies more than others. Most of these companies, maybe with the exception of nikon now, will fix or replace the scope under warranty if it does not track.
 
In that price range and for a new scope I would say the SWFA 5-20x50 HD non illuminated, when they are on sale you can get them for about $1000.00. defiantly best glass in that price rage and tracking too. Built rock solid.
 
There are a bunch out there. Grouse brings up a great point. There are always nice used scopes with a sizeable discount

Vortex HS-T, HSLR and PST
Leupold VX5HD - no idea what leupolds you have, but these track awesome.
Nikons FX1000 - killer deal on all their scopes now.
 
There's a SWFA HD 5-20 on here for sale for $900 in the optics section. I'm not affiliated with the seller.
