cjl2010 Report post Posted October 13, 2016 Does your $500 budget include the price for base and rings, level, caps? Or just scope? Forgot about that. $500 doesn't get you far if you gotta buy all that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

forepaw Report post Posted October 14, 2016 You want to get to 500 or 600 yds. Ok. Does that mean banging gongs and boulders off the hood of your pickup, or capability of putting the first shot in a vital area on game? If the first, about any 3-9x40 scope with duplex crosshair will do. If the second, then you have more issues than just scope selection. forepaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
