for a Rem 700 LSS. Don't know much about scopes, have never had a scoped rifle. Dealer recommended getting a good scope such as Leupold, and with an adjustable objective.
Ok to the questions (some may be dumb):
1. I know AOs are when you can turn the front objective, but what exactly is it for?
2. From what little I know of scopes, I think I would like something around 3x-9x with an objective around 40mm.
3. Reticles - I don't see a big diff between, say, "mil-dot" and "multi-x", at least on midways website with the smallish pics
4. will probably shoot targets from 100yds out to 300yds
5. Leupolds with AOs are super-expensive. What other companies have very nice scopes, for less money? some Bushnells are highly rated. What companies to avoid at all costs?
6. what's a good place on the web for low prices? I usually use midway.
edit: oh yeah, caliber is 30-06
edit #2: I just checked out Leupold's reticle styles webpage, so now I know all about the reticle styles, such as mil-dot, etc.
