Thread: Long range hunting scope options

How far do you want to shoot ? On game or gongs? Personally I find a 3-18x44 about the optimal long range hunting. A 2nd hand VX6 would fit your budget & even if it’s a single turn turret that gets you out to 800-900 yds depending on pill & calibre. I think there was a 2nd hand Sig 3-18x44 on YradeMe recently? That would also be a great option. Delta Ti HD 4-20x50 is another if you want to stick with 50mm objective

It does abit of range work past 1000m aswell as hunting on the farm so needs to be in the x24 mag range. The vortex is fine on the range but lacks the glass quality in the feild
