Thread: How to choose a rifle scope

@Ultimitsu thanks for setting up this thread. Quite a bit of work has gone into your post and its a good information resource now. Thats what the forum is about.

I’d like to suggest starting with your intended use: “what do you think you’ll use it for ?”
Allow 20% for stuff you didn't think of. Your favoured or available shooting will change with time, sometimes overnight. Eg tahr scope will be used at 5m. The compact bush scope will have to stretch out across the slips at times. Your all rounder might be pressed into service at 400m precision plate shoots.

So, your first scope should be an all rounder covering the 3-9x range.
