Hunting / Range scope
- Thread starter 1rstEncountr
- Start date
You need to back up a bit if you are going to get any usable suggestions.
What gun is this going on/caliber?
How far do you plan on shooting (max and min)?
What "animals" will you be shooting at? That can sometimes determine what reticle would suit you to some extent (and there are dozens of different ones).
Will you shoot in the first/last seconds of legal light? (50 mm objectives gather a "touch" more light than 40's which gather more than 32's etc)
Once you answer all the questions about how/when/where and what for, that will narrow down "what" you need, then you can start looking for a brand/model that fills those needs.
If you go in "backwards", selecting the brand/a couple of models first, you have already handicapped yourself.

It is a mosin nagant 7.26 x54r min 100 yards max well I'm hoping 600+ probably not going to need a 50 if it's time to pack in for the night I'm packing in I wouldn't chance taking a shot I was unsure about do to lighting. I would most liking be hunting deer etc medium game animals
Any suggestions are welcome
Any of the Vortex Vipers will get the job done.
You just have to research and decide what features you want.
