I recently purchased the Savage 110 High Country in 6.5 PRC. The firearm will serve primarily as a hunting rifle for Louisiana whitetail deer and "other" North American wild game. I own several guns that range from 17 HMR up to 300 WM and the new 300 PRC. Our particular hunting camp here has shots out to 500 yds and I would like to venture out as far as 1000 if given the opportunity. Secondly, the firearm will be used as a long range target gun during the offseason with shots from 700 to 1000 yd. among the locals.
After speaking with a few of my friends and fellow hunters I've gotten advice that ranges between 3x18x50 to 6x25x50. My question to the members is what do the masses think regarding magnification, etc. Scope manufacture and mounting hardware isn't a big concern to me right now because I want to make sure I'm not over or under powered on magnification. Any advice would be appreciated and put to good use. Thank you!
