[QUOTE="Elkwonder, post: 1066885, member: 28569"] I have a new Montana Rifle company Extreme X2 chambered in 280 AI coming in a week or so. I plan on this being my main hunting gun from antelope to mule deer and the occasional combo mule deer/elk hunt. I have a dedicated 300wsm for may main elk hunting. Back to the 280AI. If I set a budget of around two grand, what would be my best choices? Right now the main front runner is looking like a Swarovski Z5 3.5-18X44 with ballistic turret. I am definitely leaning toward having the capability to dail in my elevation. I know that the glass will be good for the money, but how repeatable will the turret be dialing up and down all the time on the swaro. I am also looking at the night force, but DANG at the weight. I will be ordering the Sightron S-TAC 2.5-17X56 for my 223 next week, and if I like it as well as I think I might, that could be another option. I know it won't be up to par optically with the Swarovski, but at LESS THAN HALF the price, thats a lot of savings. Any other options I should look at? What would you guys put on it if it was yours........Thanks [/QUOTE]
