[QUOTE="MallardAddict, post: 1838979, member: 3830"] Im currently shopping for a new scope for 6.5 saum. The rifle is a Stiller action, 24” proof carbon and a Manners EH1 so fairly light at 7lbs as it sits so I don’t think I want to run a super heavy optic. On my other rifles I currently have NXS in various formats, several t5xi 5-25 SCR’s, and a pair of k624i’s in MSR and like everything but their weight. This is mostly a packable deer hunting rifle and shots range from 200yds to as far as a guy cares to shoot which makes me lean to a higher top end of 18-20 or so. It may get used occasionally for elk and bears in thicker terrain so a lower bottom end may be of use to me. I typically dial elevation and hold windage for what it is worth. Wants: Fairly light weight FFP Mil-Rad reticle that isn crazy busy Zero stop Locking windage (not a deal breaker) preferably around $2000 Not opposed to buying used optics So what says the group?
