Folks,
Looking for some input to help out a hunting buddy purchase a HUNTING scope. He's doing a similar lightweight 6.5 Creedmoor AR10 build to my own. I chose the Burris XTR2 2-10 SCR MOA and have been happy with it so far. He prefers a horus style reticle.
Looking for input to make sure I'm not missing available options out there.
Prefers Horus style reticle, doesn't like to dial elevation or wind.
Price preferably under $2k.
Use is pigs, deer, and coyotes as well as steel out to 600m. Won't be realistically shooting farther than this other than for shits and giggles.
High preference to lower weight, definitely under 22 oz if possible, 16oz would be better.
Illumination preferred but not a show stopper.
I think MOA would be better for him, but matching MIL-MIL ok if price is right.
I'm thinking the VX-6HD might be best for him, he's found some good deals on some Mark6's and is leaning towards them, but I'm thinking it's too much scope for him.
Don't think more than 15x is needed. Think 2-10, 3-12, 3-15, or 4-16 would be more than adequate.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
