Bought a Remington 700 SPS 308 Win. varmint for my son this Xmas.
Need a scope to go with it. Been looking at the Buckmaster 4.5-14x40 and the 6-18x40 but I'm also considering a Monarch 6-24x50SF...decisions, decisions. I'm trying to avoid spending more on the scope than I did on the rifle so I've set a limit of $500.
He'll be mostly shooting from a bench at paper with minimal deer hunting in the future. Is the Monarch worth the extra $200? Customer service is one of the main reasons I'm considering Nikon. Or should I look at a different brand altogether? Comments welcome.
