Just something to note you may find yourself compromised if you want 1 scope to cover both islands.
Shooting big game to 3-400 mtrs is one thing but moveing to 600??

NorthIsland hunting you will typically want a very black crisp and coarser retical (Iluminated ???) that is easier to see in a hurry and with poor light, ie a variant of the German #4 with 3 heavy or tapering legs leading you into a fine cross hair or red dot.
While Tops hunting down south in good daylight you may want a finer retical with more precision, but they can be harder to locate in poor lightg bush hunting situations. ie a more standard duplex or BDC/Mil dot type setup.

Thanks for the reticle tip. Perhaps illumination may also help with this.
The South Island side of it would be few and far between, sadly and regarding the 600yd distance I meant that for at the range and practice, not animals
