Question: What are some good FFP tactical scopes in the medium mag range (low end 2-3x) that would work well for a deer hunting rig? Looking for good light transmission, not super heavy, usable reticle at low mag for point shooting, and not a real finicky eye box at low mag (or ideally at all).
Budget: probably around $2500 max, but if the correct answer exceeds that I may be able to stretch.
Background: I was going to put a Leupold VX-5 2-10 on the hunting rifle I am building but then two things happened:
1. I started to wonder if I was losing some versatility by not going FFP; and
2. my wife expressed interest in the scope
I plan to use this gun primarily in WV but given how the land is set up there is the possibility of a couple of long shots (300-600 yards), plan to take it out west, and if so inclined may use it for tactical style shooting as well. Currently expect to use 6.5CM but may go 300WSM.
thanks!
