if you like near a Cabela's, run over there real quick and see if they have a Leupold Mark 5HD on sale for $899. (there is a thread about it).
I don't know much about the scopes in your price range, but I'm extremely impressed with the Bushnell DMR II Pro.
Find a used Minox here in the PX. They go for $1900 to $2400 and are top tier alpha scopes...
Not that I’m aware of. That a heck of a deal for a great scope. I’m that teir if scope only others I’d consider would be Zero Compromise (ZCO) or Tangent Theta (TT) but those are 1000-2500 more than your budget.
Spend $1600 on a Razor II and spend the rest of the money on ammo and practice.
Vortex from Liberty Optics, great prices when added to cart.
I have a razor gen 2 and like it, less than your price range. However a deal on a kahles would be really nice! Or look at a zco for a little bit more, that’s what I’m saving for 
GAP has the Bushnell XRS and DMR series tactical scopes on sale...you get a kestrel and a knife kit with it for a good price
I'd contact Scott at Liberty Optics about a Vortex AMG 6-24 w EBR-7B
The Gen 2 Vortex Razor 4.5-27 is a about $200--$400 less, but I think the AMG has a bit better glass, it weighs 10 oz. less, has essentially the same reticle, and, except for a German made reticle, is 100% manufactured in the USA.

Don’t know anything about the scopes at hand but felt compelled to say something. Interesting.
Kahles doesn’t offer much over the gen 2. Razor. They have horrible CA in the gen 2 and gen 3s I have been behind. Minox is a much better optic for a similar price.I have a razor gen 2 and like it, less than your price range. However a deal on a kahles would be really nice!

And they still suck goat dick compared to a razor or any higher mentioned optics.
Based on your price point, I’d look hard at either the Kahles(being on sale) or the Razor. If you go Razor Gen2 get the EBR7c reticle. I’d suggest MIL or what they call MRAD. Trying to break it down and if you know this then my apologies. As what’s been said you could save a few hundred bucks going this route and have a little extra left over for a Game Changer bag and bipod which will be essential.
Whatever you do, I would recommend going with scope with mil radian (MRAD) adjustments for a whole bunch of reasons.

I also have a Kahles K624i w/SKMR3 reticle and I like it just as much as the AMG other than the AMG has better low light optical performance. And yes in optical tests it does show more chromatic aberration than desirable, but when shooting it in a match, I have never ever noticed that, and it won't ever cause a missed shot.
I have looked through the Minox ZP5 and it is impressive, but usually costs more than an AMG, and if something goes wrong will probably have to be shipped back to Europe for repair. My AMG's (I have 2) have never needed repair, but if they do, Vortex customer service is known for its excellence, and they service them in the US.
Stop the Debate, Mils vs MOA vs IPHY
Sniper's Hide is constantly fielding the question of Milliradians versus Minute of Angle vs Inches Per Hundred Yards. Mils vs MOA

Still gathering up equipment, rifle almost built. Could you message me a list of essential stuff that I might not be aware of?
