What is a good high end 20 moa mount for my new Tika T3 Tac A1 6.5 Creedmoor?
What is the best scope for $2,000? Vortex Viper HD 5-20, Steiner T5xi 5-25x56 or Bushnell ERS? |

Hit me up when you have everything together and you can come up to the range and check it out. Cheshire isn't that far from Ledyard.

If your scope budget is 2k your really close to a Razor II. I would watch the used market and I think you would find one in your budget before long.

If shooting competition, I would go with the ERS. If not, the Steiner has better optics but I don't yet trust it as much. No issues but just not enough time behind it. I had issues with my 5-20 Razor (not the fault of the scope) and can not give it a fair comparison to the others. I also did not like the turrets but that is just personal preference. |

That's a second focal plane scope. If you plan to use the reticle then I would stick with FFP.

I used an Era-Tac one piece scope mount on my Tikka CTR.
It is the lowest one piece mount I could find that had a 20 MOA riser built in. Using a one piece mount with riser allowed me to keep the factory picatinny rail attached. |

Its not impossible to remove but its not easy either. That's most of the reason I didn't want to remove it from my T3. |

Picked up a Vortex Razor 5-20 x 50 in the Cabela's bargain cave today. I just happened to come across it. Came with a level and sunshade. 20% off "employee pricing" they were offering today as well. Paid $1120 for it so I was happy! Now I need rings and ammo....
