Need some Scope suggestions...
I have a 6mm Remington barrel coming for my TC Encore. The entire rig is going to be Stainless with Grey Laminate stocks. The situation is that I can't find a scope to fit my needs. The primary use for this rifle will be coyote/groundhog sized game out to 500 yards.
The criteria: 1. Quality glass (Nothing cheap like BSA or Barska) 2. A good Varmint Reticle (Leupold's Varmint Reticle, Mil-Dot) 3. Target Style Adjustment Knobs 4. Stainless Steel/Silver Finish 5. Parallax Adjustment (AO or Side Adjustment) 6. Variable power between 4.5-14 to 6.5-20 range 7. 40-50 mm Objective 8. $750 or under So, is there anything out there that meets all of these needs? Thanks, F-C

not necessarily a endorsement, as I don't have one, but what about thishttp://www.horusvision.com/hawk.php
the reticle looked interesting.. since it is First Focal Plane... I'm in a similar situation..looking for glass myself... very similar specs as you.. prefer target turrets, and stainless..graduated reticle... |

I'm not going to lie, that scope looks nice, but that reticle confuses the dickens out of me. Seriously that is way too many marks that I don't need nor know how to use. Something not too complicated would be nice...

I have looked at the Grand Slam, I like Weaver but I just don't know about that scope. It looks so bulbous and I feel like I might as well coat my gun in a gigantic rubber grip...
