[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1548280, member: 74902"] I like Sightron III scopes. I have one a 8-32X56 SFP for target shooting. There are reports of issues with the Sightron FFP scopes however. Sightron tends to use thin reticles and when they incorporated that with their first FFP scopes, there were serious issues being able to see the reticle thru magnification ranges. For Burris - Just make sure it is a true MOA reticle. Some of their lower priced ones like Veracity do not have MOA reticles. They are bullet drop compensating reticles. BDC reticles and FFP do not work well together. Could be why Opticsplanet has that good deal on them. Vortex has a new scope this year that is receiving good reviews. I think it would be a good fit for the Savage Trophy Hunter and it has a better price point than the PST scopes. (I use both PST scopes also.) The new scope is the Diamondback Tactical in FFP with a true MOA christmas tree reticle! I would seriously consider this for your price point and type of shooting you plan to do. MSRP for a 6-24x50 is only $500.

These scopes were popular when they first came out and people were backordering them.
