I'll throw another vote for the Vortex Golden Eagle HD 15-60 x52. Best glass I've ever used. I've also done the tall target test several times and it tracks perfectly. With a 20 moa rail and Burris rings with the adjustable inserts I can just barely make it to a mile.
This is the one I would probably get. Yes they definitely make BEASTS!Check out this beast
5.8-40x56 40mm Crusader FFP Mil/Mil, Xtreme X1 illum. reticle
side focus, 1/8 MOA clicks, 0.1 MRAD clicks, FFP MIL/MIL scopes, FFP MOA/MOA scopes, large field of view, long eye relief, 150 MOA adjustment, 45 MIL adjustment, 40 mm tube scope, zero stop, illuminated reticlewww.valdada.com
12-52X56 40MM SFP TERMINATOR
IOR-Valdada make some extremely nice optics
Absolutely too many choices:
I have had a dozen Leupolds, several Zeiss, Monarch GOLD, S&B, Vortex Razor HDs,
FF1
FF2
MOA or MIL
Reticles??? like one type, but not in the scope I like so on
Power 25,35, 40, 50
Right now I am kind of leaning towards a:
Nightforce ATACR 7-35x56mm F1 ZeroStop .1mrad DigIllum PTL Mil-XT (cost will be more than the build, that's typical)
I like the reticle, has the options I want, will probably go back to MIL, been shooting MOA forever since the Corps.
I am going to a ELR shoot the next few days and I am sure someone will have one of these there for me to look through.
I also read a lot of good reviews on the Vortex Gold Eagle 15-60-52 at 1/3 cost of the NF I want.
Getting closer to final decision!!!

I am very pleased with my 4-32x56 Riton. Not exactly what you are looking for, but a suggestion.
Thanks I'll take a look!
I'm not sure that the golden eagle would good for ELR, given it's extremely limited elevation travel. Only 55 moa.

Look at the Leupold Mk5HD in 7-35. They've got some new reticles that are sweet.
I was at a ELR shoot the past few days and I saw a shooter with this scope:

Valdada Recon G2 4.8-30x56
