| I am trying to decide which scope to put on a DPMS 308. I want a good one for long range shooting. I am trying to stay around $1000. I have been considering a Trijicon 5-20x50. I have also looked at a Millet, Bushnell, and Nightforce. Any opinions? Any others to consider? Any strong opinions on the Trijicon? |

Probably a vortex pst. Either the 1-5 or the 2.5-10 depending on how much "off the bench" shooting it's going to do. (around $600) The new leupold 1-8 would also be pretty sweet if you're willing to put up with a lit reticle that isn't daylight visible. (will also probably be right at the edge of your price range) EDIT: I should have been a little clearer. A 5x starting power is going to limit the rifle to being a dedicated bench/bipod gun. IF you're building a paper puncher it will do fine. If you ever plan to shoot it off hand, you will probably want less mag or a dedicated red-dot |
