[QUOTE="AZlongrangehunting, post: 1548216, member: 108551"] Hi, I have been looking into getting some new glass for my rifle. Primary purpose is for long range hunting deer elk antelope possibly black bear; but i will also use this for long range target for practice and fun. The gun it will be mounted to is a savage 111 trophy hunter XP 7mm Rem Mag My price range isn't very high but I'm looking for something quality that will get the job done well. Initially i was looking into the Nikon Black X1000 6x24 MOA but... it is 2NDFP and I'm probably looking for a FirstFP so I'm able to properly adjust for elevation and windage at any given range. I've been looking into the Vortex PST as well... my primary question is between the GEN1 and GEN2. I see they have minute differences and relatively similar quality in glass from what i understand correct me if I'm wrong please. [B]Is the Gen2 truly worth the money above the cost of the Gen1?[/B] i believe both would suffice my needs well though. I do not believe the HST is available in FFP any other suggestions or opinions? my bias is towards FFP a in the range of magnification power listed 5 to 25 and in MOA Realistically I'm more comfortable spending 650 over 1000 as I've been dumping money at loading equipment.
