[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 2408686, member: 54178"] I use an H59 "Big Xmas Tree" reticle in a Bushnell Elite ERS scope for competition. A much smaller but very usable G3 reticle is my choice on my 6.5 PRC Browning X-Bolt Pro (6 lbs. 3 oz.) Right now I'd look at Nightforce scopes below the 28 oz. range simply for the great glass and literally mil-spec durability. As well their turrets are bulletproof. [I]But for hunting you should not be cranking turrets[/I]. Learn to use the G3 Xmas tree reticle on your local range at various distances. Get Vortex scope caps and a Vortex made "hold over table" for the inside of your ocular cap. Costs about $9. for a custom printed table. Then, with a rangefinder and that table in your scope cap you can use the proper hold. Windage is on your experience but at least with the Xmas tree reticle you can use the windage lines and not have to hold "out in unmarked space". Eric B. [/QUOTE]
