Re: hunting scope
A hunting scope should be light, rugged and inexpensive, the Leupold FX3 6x is an excellent choice. The FX2 6x36 is pretty close.
These are very user friendly scopes...glass is clear and bright, FOV is excellent, and 6x is enough mag for 600 yd shots easy.
Illumination isn't much needed for legal hunting hours. The heavy duplex stands out at low light, as does the LR reticle version, or whatever they call it.
It's a simple solution.
