This is a slightly different challenge than most scope recommendation threads, as I am constrained to one site. I have accrued a bunch of bonus points at Buy.com and I want to get a scope for my Remington 700 .308 build.

So far the leading contender is this Konus M30 8.5-32x52mm: http://www.rakuten.com/prod/konus-m...illuminated-mil-dot-matte-7282/218073802.html

It has decent reviews at Optics Planet and Amazon and received a good report on this forum: http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/showthread.php?t=39297

The newer versions of the M30 series have 1/10 MIL adjustments to match the MIL dot. That's the version the vendor claims to have.

I don't really need 32x magnification, but I would like 20x or more. I only chose this one over the 6.5x25x44 Konus because I wanted the larger objective.

I have a Konus M30 1-4x on my AR that I was very impressed with compared to my friend's Vortex 1-4x.

Anything else I should be looking at?
