On the low end 3x and on the upper end around 20x is what you're looking for with an optic IMO. Preferably FFP and MILS vs MOA is a personal preference. I like having a holdover grid now, but hated it initially. Illuminated is a must for me.
Another thing to factor is what ranges are you shooting at and is a variable power necessary. If it's not a SWFA super sniper 10x is a dang good buy for the money. |

Its about the only thing I'm interested in thanks to my dad. I can shoot pistols but working up loads for my rifles and learning how good it can groups is the only thing that really interest me. I just wish I lived some place where I can shoot as I want in my backyard.
Check natchez and see what they have on sale. Nikon black are on clearance |

After much research I think I’m going to go with the Vortex PST Gen II 3-15 it’s in my price range and has a lot of great reviews.

Budget is important here. But you mention the PSTII. If that’s your budget, that’s a solid option.

This scope has really impressed me. I don't think you can find a better value at the price.

You know I’ve read a lot of good stuff about that optic in a lot of threads with similar questions. I’ve found guys with budgets slightly higher than mine and they still get recommended that optic.

Amazon has it right under 1K so it would just fit my budget. I have to check gun deals also I haven’t had a chance I am just getting off of work.

I run the Bushnell LRTS 3-12x Mil/Mil. Camera land has them on sale for 599.99 or 649.99. Hard to beat that price for a NEW optic. I have 5 of them total on my 18” Guns.

If you can find one (everyone is closing them out), Trijicon 2.5-10x56 Accupower. Phenomenal glass, clear and good low-light. I think Dvor still has some for under 400 bucks.
