Hi All - new to the forums and wanted to introduce myself / reach out for some advice. I recently purchased a Bergara B-14 HMR in 6.5 Creedmoor and looking for a long range scope to compliment it.
Couple things about me:
Athlon Ares ETR 4.5-30x56 with the floating dot reticle (I don't like the cross hair - found a deal on a brown one for 900)
Athlon Ares BTR 4.5-27x50 with the floating dot reticle
Steiner P4xi 4-16x56 (found deal on one for 900)
Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25x50
Leupold VX-3i LRP 6.5-20x50 (found deal on one for 700)
Zeiss Conquest V4 6-24x50 (I know SFP - but found deal for 700)
Thoughts on these? Any others you would suggest? Huge thank you in advance!
Couple things about me:
- Very new to precision shooting (as in this is my first rifle).
- I don't hunt - this will just be for bench shooting / getting my chops at learning how to use the rifle / scope at distance.
- I wear glasses and left eye dominant.
- Since I am new, I have no affinity towards MOA or MIlls (although MOA sounds like it clicks in my brain better).
- I live in Austin, and most of the good outdoor ranges closed. My current range has a max 100 yards for rifles - so I will be doing a lot of learning at 100 yards until I can get access to something further.
- My price range is about 1k - 1.5k
