I am trying to avoid purchasing another scope..
I have a rem 700 sendero blued fluted in 338win mag( rifle has never been used by me as I can never keep it together with optics etc)
originally had a 4.5x14 leupold on it, but never use rifle so it was put on something else which was traded..
switched to a 6.5x20 fine duplex leupold vari x iii european.. way too much scope on this rifle but had it layng around so figured why not... well I picked up a fn fnar with a nikon buckmaster 4.5x14 bdc on it( ok hunting scope but not what I wanted as the fnar will be a play toy, so 6.5x20 went on fnar/ will possibly change out to something else after loads are developed but this big scope is able to be mounted low and clear the fnar long scope rail)
I am thinking I want a 3.5-4.5 x10-14 on it again but not wanting to shell out$$ att
laying around are
nikon buckmasters 4.5x15x40 bdc( clear but unsure on durabilty)
leupold vxii 3x9x40( on a 10-22 that will swap out for 10x elite)
burris 4.5x14x42( on a winchester 70 coyote in 308 currently)
out of the 3 listed what would you choose? Selling all 3 to get something better isnt a choice at the time, and am thinking I would rather swap stuff than buy another scope for a rifle that just occupies safe space.
Thanks in advance
