Rifle Scopes Too Many Selections These Days!

[Windjammer]

I have been out of the shooting loop for 9 years or so and wow, things have changed regarding optics. I am looking for a FFP, non illuminated modelt with 100+MOA built in and zero stop turrents with side focus


With money not being an issue, what fits this description? I am seeing many makes and models that fit the desciption somewhat such as the nightforce f1, but it is showing to be illuminated. I was once as easy as clicking radio buttons on SWFA to narrow down what I wanted such as power, make, model, side focus, reticle.......etc.


Anything like what I am describing available? This will be topping an Armalite AR10(T) The tube preference would be 30mm to 34mm in order to utilize the Accuary International one piece base.

The Bushnell ERS would fit the bill. 3.5-21 x50 with a 34mm tube couple different reticle options, 10 mil turrets, zero stop, non illuminated with good glass and reliable tracking.

Oh lord. I have nothing against bushnell, but are you basically saying that illuminated is the new thing?

since its going on top of a semi, might want to consider size too.

check out the march 3-24 review here: March-F 3-24x42mm FFP | Sin City Precision

No, what he's saying is that bushnell model doesn't have a illuminated reticle.

The G2 reticle in the bushnell does not seem very appealing but I am going to give it a hard look.

 

[Windjammer]

The March definitely looks interesting.

G2 is a great reticle what don't you like about it?

One of my favorites for that type platform right now would be the Leupold Mark 6 if you can find a good deal on one. Lifetime warranty, better glass than the Bushnell's, one of the smaller packages for the price, good warranty, great features for size and $$$. Like Bushnell, Leupold has definitely stepped up their game quite a bit over recent years.

Are you completely opposed to illumination or is it just something you don't have to have?

What i heard was the Bushnell DMR series was geared towards the military using nightvision so no illumination. Not illuminating the reticle saved on the production cost of the scope as well. Overall its a compact scope, 1-2" shorter than most other optics in its category. I friend of mine has an HDMR on top of his LMT and love it. Like you said there are was to many choices out there. but for the options you wanted the Bushnell was the first to come to mind. Seems to be a good fit for gas guns.
