[QUOTE="Memberberries, post: 1753578, member: 106647"] what type of long range shooting do you want to get into (F-Class, PRS, or silhouette) and what else do you use the gun for? if it's also your primary hunting rifle and you end up in tight quarters sometimes then I would recommend the 3-15X44 but if your hunting areas are mostly open maybe you should go for the 5-25X50. The 3-15X44 actually has more elevation adjustment range at 22 MRAD instead of 20. That doesn't really matter to you because that's something like 1500 yards on a 308 and you could just get a canted mount and make up the difference. If you get a 5-25X50 you will get the same or better light transmission at 15x than you will on the 3-15X44 at the same power due to the bell being bigger. Personally I would buy the 5-25X50 in a FFP but the 3-15X44 should serve you quite well out past 1K on steel also. [/QUOTE]
