Gidday,
Any recommendations for a good value scope that dials in 3 - 14 ish power range? Around the $500 - 700 mark? 1” tube.
Would like to do a bit more longer range varminting.
Am I best to wait for an older VX3 Leupy or the likes. Or are there any overseas websites I could save a few bucks on that currently ships NZ?
Cheers
Look up ScopeUout,Wellington.Back up their warrantys on scopes in yr budget range.
There's a vx111 4.5-14 cds on trademe, cosmetically rough but 500 bux
I got a second-hand Burris Signature 3-15x44 from Dreamer on here - nice little scope for the money, clear glass and dials well. Would rate it well above a VX3 having owned both.
A Hawke would fit that bill nicely. Air rifle scope, they're built tougher as a result.
That is something that has peaked my interest. Could probably stretch the budget more for something like thatQuote:

Similar price bracket and worth considering Element Optics 2-16×50 HDLR, very good scope comes in mil or moa, has illuminated reticle and zero stop.Quote:

They all seem to be the E3 or whatever it's called. Rare to see a duplex for sale now, as I've been looking....Quote:

Cheers all. Appreciate it .Looking like I’m saving for a Burris or an Element. A mate has leant me an old NXS for the time being to get me going.
Have you considered getting one in from overseas etc? Been looking for one myself but they seem to be pretty rearQuote:

I run a ZeroTech Vengeance 3-12x42 on my 22 semi. Been impressed by performance of scope that cost me $300 (2nd hand).
