Hello Sniper hide,
I’m a new member here, going through all the information here. Seems you guys knowyour stuff, and I’m currently in process switching out stuff for my RPR 6.5 Cm as it’s easily my favorite gun. One thing I’m wanting to do is get a new scope for it. My budget is limited so NF, Kahles, TT , S&B or any brand alike are out of the question currently as recently I found out my dad has cancer so my spare/ play money is going be limited as I will use it to help my parents if needed. Currently selling my AR-10 6.5 cm to fund most of this then will save when I can for rest of it.
Anyways scope choices
1st: https://www.primaryarms.com/vortex-optics-diamondback-tactical-6-24x50-ffp-rifle-scope-moa
Vortex known brand, and leave me little extra cash
Rest are Athlon scopes, as it’s brand I kept seeing popping up around here. Now I’m kind of the fence about Athlon as my dad bought this one https://athlonoptics.com/product/argos-btr-10-40x50-blr/. We took out couldn’t get to zero at 100, and dad was having issues with reticle disappearing at low mag range. He thought it was because of his old guy eyes, so I got behind it was having same issues. So thought because it bit cloudy/foggy out but my 6.5 scope and 10 yr old scope on my dads 7 mag had no issues in the weather conditions. So don’t know what deal was maybe it’s a dud. Anyways not going write them off yet.

Pushing my budget a little but doable
4th: https://cameralandny.com/shop/brand...583e-0136-ed89-00163e90e196?variation=1796205
Maxing my budget I will have save little extra to get this one
I’m wanting something in the 20-30 mag, good glass (ED glass on the ares is appealing ) good turrets/tracking, as Im hoping to be shooting 1k yard range soon as it drys up here little more and wanting scope will last me awhile that will do everything I need or want until I’m in position possibly buy a TT, NF and etc range scope.
