Best Scope for Various Price Ranges Listed

Hello - I hope everyone is doing well. I would love to get some opinions on scope of various price ranges. I have several rifles I am working on. Each for different uses so not all need perfection on optics. What’s your opinion on these price ranges which I am shopping.

Best sub $500 scope?

Best $500-1000?

Best $1000-$2000?

Thank you for your valuable opinions!!

A little help with thermal optics please

I may be looking for a Unicorn, I thought I would check with the Hide mind.

I have been doing quite a bit of pest and predator hunting since 2021. As I have become more exposed to it, incorporating a thermal device seems like the way to go at this point. What I would ideally like to do is have a thermal that serves three different functions. 1) I would like it to be a inline clip on that sits in front of my day optic. 2) I would like to be able to use it as a hand held for scanning. 3) If it can do the first two, I would love to be able to attach it to a bridge and use it helmet mounted sometimes. Of the three wishes, the one that is most important to me is the inline. If I can get a thermal that I can mount and it does not impact zero very much, that would be ideal. I would also like to keep the total cost at or below $7,500.

Bases for Win 70 Match (post-64)

Hello, Friends.

A few months ago, I came across a very nice 1967 Model 70 Match Rifle. It has the beavertail stock, target barrel and a short rail up front. Been wanting one for several years and at last found one at a reasonable price. I have several pre-64s in my collection, but this configuration has always appealed to me.

When I took delivery, the first thing I had to do was get a scope on it. I had a set of bases for the Model 70, but these were a no-go. Neither pre- nor post-64 bases fit the rear holes.

I did some research and discovered my rifle was built on the 300 Holland length action and had the .437" hole spacing for the rear base.

EGW makes a picatinny base, but I wanted a more traditional look. Here are some pics of what I found that that fits this model Winchester 70.

Upside down reloading tray.

I am looking for a reloading tray that allows you to nicely place cases mouth down. I have been using the cardboard trays from lapua packaging and really like being able to set the cases in the tray mouth down for certain parts of my process but would like to find something a little more durable/long term and am hoping somebody on here has a recommendation. Mostly load 6.5creed and 308 for reference.
Thanks in advance!

On this, St. Patrick's Day... a shoutout to possibly the greatest Irish-American of all time... Father Duffy

So... don't want to type out all the details... So read it for yourself.


But as the chaplin for the "Fightin' 69th" which traced its roots to the Civil War as a New York regiment made up largely of Irish Immigrants... he is recognized as a hero of WW1.

He was the epitome of leadership and served alongside "Wild Bill" Donovan (MoH and founder of the OSS). A young Douglas MacArthur considered him to be an icon.

He was, as far as I am concerned, the epitome of the Irish American who rose (against much opposition) from hated immigrant to the very symbol of Law and Order in America. A man who blended faith, patriotism, leadership and mentorship... and who helped make being of "Irish descent" into the very essence of being American.

On this, St. Patrick's Day... this is the kind of Irishman who helped build modern America. And who probably, almost noone, has ever heard of.

Erin go Bragh!!!!

Sirhr

PS. I'm of Scot descent. So for me to say anything nice about the %$#@ing Bog Irish... damn, this dude must have been someone!!! He was!
