after pouring over thread after thread i have become even more undecided as to what scope to purchase. I just picked up a savage 10 .308 win. with choate stock (mcmillan a-5 copy). i am looking for a decent first scope for my first long range rifle. i plan on shooting out to 1000yd max but more commonly 700-800yd. i have been mulling over the falcon menace 4-14x44 FFP, leupold Mark 4 4.5-14x50 and the millett 6-25x56 LRS-1. any thoughts/advice. anything to stay away from? anything to look for out of these that sets one apart? another brand that woudl be better? the rifle cost $650, so as for scope price range i would like to keep it around there, not including a base and rings. any help is greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
