I've been spending way too much time trying to decide what ~$1,000 optic to put on a new high quality 6.5 Grendel build that I am putting together to shoot steel and occasionally hunt deer with, and have narrowed the options down to two scopes.
The first contender is the Vortex Razor HD LHT 3-15x42 HSR-5i MRAD. I know this scope is well known, but the specs are:
Magnification 3-15x
Objective Lens Diameter 42 mm
Eye Relief 3.8 inches
Field of View 35.3-7.0 ft/100 yds
Tube Size 30 mm
Elevation Turret Style Locking/Zero Stop
Windage Turret Style Capped
Adjustment Graduation .25 MOA
Travel Per Rotation 15 MOA
Max Elevation Adjustment 80 MOA
Max Windage Adjustment 80 MOA
Parallax Setting 20 yards to infinity
Length 13.3 inches
Weight 19.1 oz
The other option I have narrowed it down to is the Bushnell LRHS2 4.5-18 x 44 G2H
New feautures for LRHS2
Which would you pair with this rifle?
