Rifle Scopes Need advice on Optics..

[netranger6]

Here's what I am picking up, from another hide member:

> GAP .308 AI
> Badger 30mm Rings
> US Optics Swivel Bubble Level
> 2-5 Round Mags 1-10 Round Mag
> TAB Rifle Cover Multicam
> TIS FDE Sling
> Lucas Bore Guide
> BH 175 Grain Ammo min. 40 Rounds
-Remington 700 Action
-Accuracy International 1.5 Stock
-Badger Ordnance 20MOA Base
-Badger Ordnance FTE Muzzle Brake
-KMW Tactical Bolt Knob
-Bead blast & coated with flat black
-Bedded AI Chassis
-Chambered and trued action & bolt & crown muzzle
-Hand lapped stainless steel Bartlein 24" Barrel (Same as on Crusader)
-Jewell Trigger 2.0lbs
-Badger Recoil Lug

Less than 30 rds down her, and for right at $3K. I am not a rich man, but do want good glass, without doubling the price of the rig. Any suggestions? Also, Matt built this stick, any doubters out there?

Nighforce SFP 3.5-15x50 MLR/Mil. Should fit the rig perfectly, give you all the features you need, and none that you don't. If you don't need zero stop, and few of us really do, maybe call Alex and EuroOptics and ask him what he's got kicking around in old stock NF. You should be able to scope it very, very well for no more than $1500.

You left out the only thing that matters: What sort of shooting are you going to do?

I will be using it to punch paper, go to the pasture and shoot for distance, as well as dropping a hog or two when I feel like it. .

Graham, do you think this is a fair price?
