Ive been looking at getting a Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50 or 6-24x50 as an upgrade from my Bushnell Elite 3200 10x40. Is the FFP worth the $150 difference?
Most shooting will be tactical style shooting 100-500yds(possible farther if I can find a better range).
Re: marlin x7 varmint hunter
well, im just startin out in precision shooting and have a remingtn 700 sps tac aac-sd on the way topped with a bushnell elite 3200 10x. but i thought this would be a good budget starter rifle that i could setup and use as an extra rifle. i have a brother that...
Had run across the marlin x7 varmint hunter 308 w/26" heavy barrel. the shop was selling it for 399 but seen places online cheaper.seems like a great deal to have a starter rifle on a low budget. has anyone had any experience with these?

Re: new rifle...new scope
had another thought, found the trade in program that swfa offers, do u think i can get close to even with the bushnell being on sale for 129?
Re: new rifle...new scope
ok, i ran across a vortex crossfire 4-12x40 AO with resettable turrents under caps, it ran like 149+ tax. would this optic be better suited? does it track well(accurate)? glass difference between the bushnell? reason im asking is i paid a low price on the barska and...
Re: new rifle...new scope
so is the bushnell 3200 tactical 10x gonna be a good option? is there a difference between the 3200 tact 10x and the elite tact 10x? and this rifle will be setup 95% for target shooting and 5% hunting so not really a dual purpose. and the hunting we do require...
Re: new rifle...new scope
thanks for the reply
im coming to learn that the hunting profile barrel heats up too fast to shoot requiring wait time, plus the rem 700 is supported very well, and there is alot of info on the 308 for reloading/shooting.
reason i was thinking the bushnell 3200 10x...
