OK, so I'm impatiently awaiting the arrival of my 6.5 CM Browning X-Bolt Pro next week.
And I am beginning to look for a scope of the same quality as this semi-custom rifle
-> Presently I have, from another rifle, a SWFA 5 - 15 x 42, FFP, mil/mil turrets and reticle, side focus and, amazingly, quite good glass. (But no turret locks!)
My Requirements:
1. FFP (I'm very used to it from competition)
2. mil/mil turrets and reticle (same as above)
3. 30 mm tube - if posible, for weight reduction.
4. 44 mm objective bell - if possible, for weight reduction
5. 30 oz. or less (The bare X-Bolt Pro weighs 6 lb. 1 oz.)
6. at least 12 power max, 18x is better
7. less than $1,500.
Yes, this rules out by almost $1,000. that Vortex Razor AMG 6 - 24 x 50 that I lust after. (
So I have found only a few that meet my long list of requirements.
1. Bushnell Elite Tactical LRHS 4.5 - 15 W/ or W/O illuminated reticle
2. Leupold VX6 3 - 18 x 44 (but finding mil/mil for sale is very difficult)
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Feel free to add to this list. Yeah, sadly the scopes I've listed are out of production but still on sale.
