I am researching scopes for my .223REM Savage Axis.
Budget tops out around $300
It currently wears the $.20 3-9x40 bushnell package scope, which I want to chuck in favour of something that has a bit more magnification and probably won't fall apart.
I like the idea of headshotting rabbits at 200 yards (after some practice
), maybe a bit of target shooting too.
I will also be spotlighting for foxes etc, maybe a bit of roo culling if a contact I am working on goes well.
I will probably use the rings that are on it now and upgrade those later on.
I would love to go wax $800 on a Leupold VX2 6-18 with the LRV reticle, bit I am afraid the budget won't be stretching that far.
I like the idea of some sort of ballistic reticle or mil dots. I also would like adjustable parralax.
Even though an Axis isn't an AR15
I like the Bushnell AR scope, price is ok and I guess the tacticool doesn't fuss me. Probably my favourite:
