Clintoon Eastwood 2 Posted July 28, 2013 Looking to price out a scope for remington 700(30-06) or a ruger gunsite(.308). Pricing out the total for the combo rifle and scope. I want to keep it under 1k. Range I plan on shooting is 300plus yards. $350 might be a stretch for a scope with that kind of magnification, but I thought I would try to find something that is affordable and decent. Is that possible? Suggestions, please? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clintoon Eastwood 2 Posted July 28, 2013 Nobody? I'm guessing its impossible to find a decent scope for under $350 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clintoon Eastwood 2 Posted August 1, 2013 Any suggestions on the magnification for 200-500 yards? I was really leaning towards 3-9x40 but I dont think it would good enough for 300 plus yards Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worn_Holster 2 Posted August 1, 2013 I have a SWFA 10x42HD on my Remington 5R, and it is an awesome scope for the $s. I had a regular SWFA 10x42 before that on the same rifle and it was decent also. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was really leaning towards 3-9x40 but I dont think it would good enough for 300 plus yards the one I showed you is the best bet in your price range hands down. You can read the reviews on snipershide or ar15.com as it's been purchased extensively with much fanfare. Personally, I'd save up and buy a viper 2.5-10 if I were you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JC_68Westy 1,024 Posted August 2, 2013 I put a Leupold Scout scope on my Ruger GSR and love it. I hunted boar last year in TN using an Aimpoint at shorter distance, but the Scout scope works really well. I have the fixed 2.5 power version and it is very good glass. I haven't shot to 300 with it yet. It is very accurate and clear to 150yds (furthest I have used it). I plan on taking it out to a longer range to test the capabilities.
