Potentially deer, coyote and varmint. Live on a farm with lots of prairie land. I do find my self shooting towards the end of the day in diminishing light. That's why I'm thinking I may want the illumination

One last question. Am I going to be wishing I had illumination vs non illumination?

Thanks!

So given the choice of the bushnell 3.5-21 for $725 or a Gen 2 pst 5-25 for $700. Would you guys say go with better glass, or a tad more magnification? I think I'm leaning towards the bushnell. I'm sure I'd be happy with either one.

That seems like a really good deal on the pst

@CSTactical your who I was gonna go with for the strike eagle. Lots of really good advice. Thank you all. I'd like to go for the higher mag as I shoot lots of paper groups too. So it's nice to crank on the magnification.

I've missed a few used Gen2 PST's in the PX. I've got the funds set aside now. So most likely the first one that pops up I'll nab.

And thanks for the advice

Shit.. I thought the SE was Japan.

I do appreciate the suggestion. My budget won't allow me to get the Cronus tier of optic made in Japan. Not buying Chinese for this rifle. Thank you though!

Forgot to add and I'll edit. Must be mil/mil turrets and reticle.

Need pictures when you can

Hey all, Just hoping for some first hand experience. I'm stuck between a 5-25 strike eagle (really like the price) or a used Bushnell DMR 2 G3 for ($725) or do I just go and get a Gen 2 pst for $1000? Budget is $1000 max. The lower I can stay the better. Mounted on a Rem700P. Have access to...

I like to use what we called "engineers tape" in the Army. Its just 3/8 inch wide thin cloth tape. Works great for seeing wind. https://www.amazon.com/White-Engineer-Textile-8315-01-463-5853-8315-00-255-7662/dp/B00L2MLCL6
