6 shots from a Choate varminter stocked Savage .308 and the magnification ring spins but no change in magnification. I'm trying to help a buddy get into shooting/reloading. I was commenting on the glass gathering good light for such a high power setting and went to turn it down and NOTHING. Does anyone know if this is to be expected from Vortex? He is being taken care of by Vortex but will one they send to replace it be any different?
This scope is on a .308 Savage 10fxp. The stock was the weakest link and he opted for a choate varminter. He wants a heavy barrel and real nice scope in the future but realizes fundamentals and time behind the gun are whats important now. Hes just trying to get by with well enough until he develops enough knowledge to know what he likes and doesn't. He also is a noob reloader and his heart and mind are in the right place.
Is there a reasonably priced tactical scope that will fit the bill for under $400. i recommended Bushnell elite 3200 or equivalent as a baseline but so many other things need addressing before a high dollar scope can be justified.
