[QUOTE="Good, post: 870077, member: 18866"] So after watching my scope woes during a tough cow hunt last week, yes we were successful, the wife OK'd me to start getting outfitted. She just didn't understand the need of good optics before, but now she does. So, I have been looking far and wide for the options I want, in my price range, but can't find it. So, what I really want is something like a Vortex HS for the covered windage knob [B]FFP [/B]in roughly 6-24 (at least 20), with [B]1/4minute or .1mil clicks[/B] and an [B]illuminated[/B] EBR-2b (preferred) or XLR reticle for the tree, with a zero stop. That's what I want but can't find anything like it from anyone in my price range. A buddy turned me on to what I thought was an awesome scope for my needs in the Bushnell HDMR. It's 3.5-21x50, FFP, 2" shorter than the PST but heavier and has 34mm tube, decent glass, either the H59 or TRMR reticle. All great, but no illumination or zero stop. In fact, the exact same scope, but with the G2 reticle and zero stop adds over 400$ to the price, and the Vortex Razor is just too far out of my price range. I'm probably going to be forced to buy a PST because it's as close as I can get with the reticle being the only major thing lacking. SO, if anyone knows of something that might fulfill my needs (wants) around a grand, please let me know! [/QUOTE]
