I’ve only ever bought two new rifles. A 270 Rem model 7 from reloaders 20 odd years ago, and 8 or 9 years ago a Steyr Scout.
I love it, and have no desire for another “main” hunting rifle. Can’t see myself ever changing.
It’s a 308, I’ve knocked over a few animals in the 400M range, closest probably less than 10M.
I have a Swaro Z6 with illuminated recticle, and what I really rate is it has the rail mount, no rings.
It is bombproof. Had a few falls and good knocks as you do, it fell off the quad at 40 kph. Never had to re-zero. Check it from time to time, always bang on. I zero at 100.
Shoots 3/4 MOA all day, is short, light and has a built in bipod. Nice in the tight stuff, and seems enough for my self imposed max range of 450M
Weirdly for a short light rifle, it seems soft to shoot.
I’m not sure what it’s worth all up, certainly more than $5k but less than $10.
