    Rifle Scopes Best illuminated low light scope for $500 or less

    If you look around online a bit, you’d be able to find a Trijicon Accupoint 3-9x40 for $500ish. Its a hard one to beat for that price, for an illuminated hunting scope for low light/ twilight use. Excellent glass and coatings. You could keep magnification limited to about 7 or 8 power to...

    Rifle Scopes SBR Optic... Elcan or Razor? Others?

    For shorty rifles I pretty much have gone the way of being as light weight as possible; it’s so easy to let an sbr get too chubby and loose it’s quick handling qualities. A light weight 1-4x (or 1-6x) or the like with a 45 degree offset mini dot is a pretty versatile combo. It doesn’t take too...

    Rifle Scopes DMR optic

    Two that pop into my head right off the bat are Bushnell LRTS 3-12x44 and SWFA 3-9x42 HD. Both have tremendous build quality, IMO. I’ve got the Bushy mounted on my 18” DMR/SPR Grendel and it seems like a perfect fit.

    Rifle Scopes New Hunting Scope recommendations

    For another option to add to the pile, I saw that Euro optic has the Schmidt Bender Klassic line on a nice sale right now; the 3-12x42 would be stellar for $999 if you ever wanted to get into Schmidt glass for sub $1k...

    Rifle Scopes Thoughts on Scope for Barrett M99

    Between the 2 scopes you listed, I’d lean towards the Steiner, but I haven’t read any reports of either one on a .50. I have read many reports over the years of of SWFA scopes on .50’s with pretty great results. As far as rock solid build quality, mil-grade type options, the ones that...

    Rifle Scopes scope for a .308

    If you could find a Bushnell Elite SMRS 1-8.5x24 on clearance for under $700 (seen them around occasionally for that), that would be a sweet setup on the BAR.. Burris XTR II 1-8x would probably be a great choice and gets good reviews. Trijicon 1-8x is cool option too, as well as the good ole...

    Rifle Scopes Scope for a 17HMR rifle

    It would be worth taking a look a the Bushnell Nitros that are on clearance right now, they seem interesting for the price. The Athlon Argos line would be worth checking out in that price range as well.

    Rifle Scopes Better Glass...

    It’s worth mentioning that the main 2 properties that consist of perceived “glass” quality are Resolution and Contrast. (Several other factors too, of course.) This is one reason why guys don’t always agree on which scope has better “glass”. Everything in optics is about compromises, and...
