I am looking at picking up a Savage Axis in .223 to get into rifle target shooting. I can't see shooting beyond 500 yards. I am looking for something in the $200 range. What magnification is ideal (3-9/4-12)? What size of objective lens (40mm/50mm)? Hoping some more experienced folks can provide some insight. Thanks.
