[QUOTE="ds, post: 70028, member: 3050"] Gar, Another scope to stay away from is ATN. For what you would like to spend I would look for a Leupold VX11 (4x, 6x) or old Weaver T16 (prefered) secondhand. They have two great features BSA and the others dont have....reliability and repeatability...... plus good glass...... plus in the case of Leupold a lifetime warranty (dont know on Weaver). A fixed power scope will get the job done. If you can drop more cash at about $400 you get into "good zoom scopes". Dont worry if it is not made in the USA, Leupold glass aint. If it says made in Japan is can be very good (thats where Nightforce are from. Maybe someone else will know if the T16 etc were made in the US (I think so). No harm in getting a decent fixed power scope for now and saving for something better later. David. [/QUOTE]
