Hi guys, new to the forum and after some advice on picking a scope for a Ruger American Hunter in 308 I have on order.
Looking for something under $1k that can be used for both hunting and target shooting at the range, nothing too serious.
I have kind of narrowed it down to the Meopta Optika5 3-15x44 or the Optika6 2.5-15x44 but can't really see the difference between these two? From what I can see on paper the Optika6 5 is lighter, has a better FOV and is 50% cheaper?
Some others I were considering were
Sightron S-Tac 4-16x44
Vortex Viper HS 4-16x44
Or the Leupold VX-3HD 4.5-14X40 SF, but it's about $350 over budget.
Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated thanks!
