Looking for budget friendly glass

Hi all,
I am looking to start building my first bolt action 6.5 CM rifle. (I have a multi caliber can that I will be using with this rifle although maybe not full time)
I haven't settled on anything just yet but here is what I am thinking so far:
Action: Zermitt Origin SA(Or a TL3. I think I have seen more mentions of the TL3 on this site, but not really sure why or what the difference between the 2 are.)
Barrel: Shouldered prefit barrel (possibly from PVA or NSS. I have reached out to both for more information). 26" with heavy Palma contour
Stock/Chassis: KRG Bravo (Although I'd really love the Whiskey-3)
Trigger: I'll probably use the stock trigger for now.
Glass: I need some recommendations on good quality budget glass. My friends over at TGT recommended snipershide to me and I've even purchased what's being a called a diamond in the rough scope from Primary Arms (SP1-6x24) based on recommendations that originated from snipershide.
I need something for the rifle I am planning to build ^^ that will allow me to get my feet wet and learn the fundamentals of zeroing in a scope and learning how to adjust it for different distances and situations. If I can stay within the $300-$600 range that would be great. If not then I am open to other suggestions that exceed that. I am open to buying used and/or a trade. I am considering selling my AR-15 style rifle to provide additional funding for this rifle, but with the ATF being GAF right now I am bit hesitant to do so.

Please keep in mind I am completely new to bolt action rifles (I have never owned or fired one). I am more than willing to do research and I have been down a rabbit hole doing so for about 2 weeks now lol. I have read some of the other threads on here about optics, but some of them are a bit dated so I wanted to get a fresh perspective.

Thank you all in advance. So far my experience here on the hide has been fantastic. You all are a great group. It is much appreciated.

Frank Zappa

Ok here it is. Seems there’s quite a few fans of Zappa here. For those not familiar, this is probably going to be WTF. Also sure we’re going to hear about him being a leftist. Criticizing the right wing and worrying about a theocracy. I wonder what he would say about the current woke culture. He would certainly be cancelled.

Zappa made fun of everything. Religion yes, but also homosexuality, elitism even suicide. No sacred cows.

So here we go.

This could get interesting

Apparently Macron has dissolved the frog Parliament and is holding some sort of emergency elections due to some right wing wins over there in frogville.

Seems the left will do any, and every, thing to hold onto power.....sound familiar ?


Choose your poison MSM to follow.

Newsmax going "Public!"

Just seeing on their live broadcast (while waiting for the Trump rally in Las Vegas) that Newsmax will announce tomorrow that they are making a "public offering" of preferred stock. Don't know all the details surrounding the offer, but they are certainly advertising it. Well, officially, tomorrow, but they leaked it today on-line.

I'll be honest. I'm a little worried. I could see Soros and some of his buddies trying to buy up all the shares so they can kill the company later on. I truly hope Newsmax is careful about to whom they sell. Or structure it with all kinds of "poison pills" to prevent that kind of takeover.

Tread carefully, Newsmax!

Do I really need to know much of anything?

I'm totally new to rifle, don't even own a bolt action but seem to be getting interested. I was thinking of going to one of the long range schools. What are they like? Are they worth it? I've read articles about scopes, sighting in and that stuff, I don't have a clue, even after watching the videos. MOA this and that, Mils, this and that, it's all doing a fly by... Is all of this stuff really necessary? I mean just trying to get the bullet where you want it to go should be simple especially if you really know the rifle and ammo ? I'm dumber than a box of rocks, so the instructor would have to be a saint. All of these classes seem to be out in the middle of nowhere, I would like to learn all day, then drink, nice dinner and try to find a hot prostitute at night, that ain't going to happen in bumfuck. I'm a dumbshit 60 y/o dude and would rather use an old wood stock 30-06 (or 308). Do I need a funky ass looking rifle with a can? I don't know, I really don't know...It all just gives me a headache
