I have used cheap end scopes on .22s but have used open sites on my older hunting rifles. I have recently bought a Remington 700 in .308. My normal hunting rifle is and don't laugh at me, a Winchester 30/30 that my grandfather gave over 20yrs. ago but it shoot straight and has take a few nice mounts and kept meat in the freezer.

I want to put a nice top end scope on it. What would you think is a good choice. Not looking for a night vision scope or something the size of the hubble telescope. Just a high quality scope for hunting. Perfer not to spend over $1000.00 but if the scope is just that good then it may be an option.

Any pros and cons from your own experiance would helpful.

Thank you all in advance.
