[QUOTE="Tex_Hunter, post: 2598235, member: 31749"] Simplicity is your best bet in this price range. Tactical style turrets, fancy reticles and other “cool” features add cost and complexity which comes at the expense of quality in this price range. Stick with capped elevation/windage, duplex reticle, and a 1” tube from a reputable mfg and you should be good to go. Something like the Leupold VX1/VX2 series of old (don’t know what they call it now). Had one (a 3-9x40) on my first rifle, held zero for ages of abuse and knocked down plenty of animals over the years. Me personally? I’d borrow a rifle for a year and try to save another $300 ahead of next season, puts you in a much better price range. [/QUOTE]
