[QUOTE="Bullmark, post: 2125900, member: 113003"] I can’t verify that my picks will have the adjustment range to get u to 1000yds, but I can for optical quality and durability. I’ve been a glass nut for a long time and have tried out more scopes than I can remember. What I do when I’m shopping for a new scope is look for one on my short list that’s available as a demo, display, or flat out used. It allows me to afford the alpha glass that I really can’t afford. My last one was a shot show demo and I saved $800. Swarovski, Leica, and Schmidt & Bender are the 3 that I’ll buy without reservation. As a matter of fact there is a Leica Magnus 2.4-16x50 for sale on this site’s classifieds and the seller is giving it away....I think it was lowered to $1350 the last time I looked. Simple duplex with a rock solid exposed yardage turret. That Leica will outperform almost any other in overall optical quality and will be better than any I’ve tried reducing glare and shooting into the sun. I’m shooting a Swaro Z8i and the Magnus is just as good for my eyes. My overall fav is the S&B Exos, which I can think of one place that’s selling two as demos right now....the demo price would get u close to your budget but not all the way. For me, the 3-21x50 Exos has the build quality of a NF with the optical performance of a Z8i or Zeiss Victory, and is more user friendly than all of them. Besides the price it’s also a bit heavy....31-32oz. If an illum reticle is not a must, like it is for me, that Magnus is the best glass for the best price I’ve seen in a long time. Good luck.
