Suggest me a scope for my 700 Tactical Build?

[.Ben]

Hey guys,

gathering parts for my Remington 700 Tactical build, 20 inch heavy barrel, .308.

need some suggestions on a scope and bases for this,

looking for a scope that will allow shooting out to 600 meters, and i would prefer a mil-dot reticle. somehting decent but affordable would be good lets say under $500?

looking for bases for said scope that will be solid and stay tight and all the other good things bases should do....

Thanks guys,

oh and if anyone has any idea's a good Bi-pod let me know!

Having changed scopes quite a bit in the past two years with my F-Class rifle the Bushnell Tactical series might be a place to start. My only gripe with them was the reticle was not as fine as other scopes. Tried the Falcon Menace which had a great reticle but the eye relief at high power was to short for me. Just picked up a Sightron that looks amazing compared to the others but haven't had a chance to use it yet.

I was told that the Bushnell 4200 series are either on sale or are going to be on sale from Cabelas ( the real one U.S) for really good prices. The 4200 series are great scopes for the money and come in a variety of reticle options...might be worth looking into. They currently have some leupold scopes in the bargain cave as well as some nikon prostaffs

I have the same rifle and I have a Bushnell 4200 6-24x40 that I am very happy with.

You will probably want to get bases with built in height for that distance shooting though as the Bushnell has limited adjustments.
