[QUOTE="Mcarso1, post: 1421453, member: 99287"] so I have narrowed down my choices and am looking for some sound advice on the above models , pros cons etc. I have contacted a few guys on here selling scopes and considered trying a buy from individual but I am not familiar with PayPal and all that stuff so I am just gonna buy new from local shop. I thank all of you who I have contacted on used scopes for taking the time, bunch of good folks on here. I am mounting on a Christensen arms ridgeline in 6.5x284. I can safely take a few 900-1000 yard shots on the farm and adjacent farms but being new to the long range scene it will be awhile before I would be confident in taking a shot that far on a animal. I am confused a bit on magnification as some guys say the 3-18 VX6HD or 4-16 Atacr would be great and others say absolutely get 24-25 power on top. Give me your thoughts please so I can narrow it down some more and get shooting soon. I have no experience with upper end scopes, have used Leupold 3-9 and 3.5-10 my whole life but now I wanna get into longer range. I have looked at all the scopes and handled them in the stores, I have narrowed it down to these two and plan on purchasing one of the three models ! Thanks guys [/QUOTE]
