[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1316604, member: 12193"] I bought a 7mm-08 this year and put a Leupold on it. 3.5-10x40 VX-3i with CDS elevation turret. This scope has the windplex reticle so I can hold for wind if needed (windage turret is capped). The 4.5-14x40 version is the same size and weight but costs a little more. Like you said, this caliber is great out to 500 yards or so, and I figure a CDS turret is ideal for such distances. I bought discounted gift cards for Cabela's on Ebay and waited for a coupon. Ended up paying around $360 for my scope. I also considered the VX-2 in a 2-7x33 w/CDS but couldn't find the deal I wanted. That scope is about an inch shorter than the VX-3i and would work nicely on a lightweight rifle. As far as I know they don't make the 2.5-8x36 VX-3i with a CDS turret from the factory. You can order one from Leupold but you'll pay full retail. [/QUOTE]
