I am looking for scopes for 2 suppressed guns. I want something "like" a Nightforce 2.5x10 with exposed turrents but don't want to spend $3000 on 2 scopes. I would like a minimum of 10x on top end, compact and turrents exposed. Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks
 
If by compact you mean lightweight, the lightest tactical type scope in the 3-9x range with exposed turrets and mil/mil that I know of is the Leupold Mark AR mod1. It's 12.4 oz. the 4-12x40 version is 14.8 oz. They are in the $350-450 range.
For little cheaper, the Midway Weaver GS 3-10X40 is excellent for the money and comes is at 16.6 oz.
The leupold VX-R Patrol looks nice also, 15.3 oz., and illuminated Tmr reticle for around $600. The Vortex 2.5-10x32 and x44 are nice too, but are getting over the 18.5 oz mark, and on the top end of what I consider compact and lightweight. Everything considered, if I had the funds I'd probably jump on the pst 2.510x32 for around $800
 
Vortex and Leupold's look good. Has anyone seen or know who has a Leupold with a 300 blackout reticle. I see a few of the high dollar scopes but none of the low end price points. Any hide vendors that might carry either Vortex or Leupold or both?
 
Someone else was just asking a similar question. I have the Leupold VX-R 1.25-4 on my 300 blackout and love it.
