I'm looking for a high powered scope for shooting paper in bright daylight. Not a hunting scope, not a competition scope, just paper in the 100-200 yds range. I find that 12x and a thick reticle just isn't working for me at 100 yds with a 223.
I hear good things about the Simmons Whitetail Classic Rifle Scope 6.5-20x 50mmc for $100, but I am concerned the reticle night be too thick.
Some other scope I am considering:
redfield revenge 6-18x44 $250
Tasco Target & Varmint 6-24x44 - $130
Weaver 6.5-20X44 40/40 AO Riflescope Varminter Reticle $200
Weaver 6-24X42 Classic V-24 AO Riflescope STT .223 Ballistic-X Reticle - $280
Vortex 6-18x44 Crossfire $200
I'll be honest, I can't really tell much of a difference in the glass between my tasco world class, burris timberline, vortex viper, or weaver grand slam. Now, turret clicks, power, eyebox and reticles are all different, but I have a sneaky suspicion I am not a scope snob, however, I do like nice things when I can afford them.
I am open to suggestions and opinions, but I have a hard ceiling set at $300. Suggesting a sightron s3 or a nightforce is not helpful. The less I spend on a scope the more I get to spend on ammo.
