Thread: Scope options

Thanks guys got a bushnell elite 6500 2.5 -16 42 as a start off fireflite here on the forum as a start. If the long distance thing really sticks I'll upgrade eventually. Exposed turret caps etc

Thanks for the advice. Got an elite 6500 with exposed turrets 2.5- 16 x42 as a start off from fireflite here on the forum. Time to go shooting

Nothing wrong with that! Should do the trick nicely

i have a minox 5-25x56 on my 7mmRM. good optics but closer to the $1300 mark when on special.

Looking around the 1k mark and I would like to do some long range stuff as well as a bit of Bush work. Any recommendations on what the best option is value wise? I'm all ears. Also has a t2 brake on it.

Sorry bit off topic, but how do you find the brake?

I rate them. T2 terminators from terminator products are the ducks nuts. Obviously there is the noise factor but it certainly stops the rifle pushing you about

Im a massive fan of Nikon scopes to spend 1k on a Nikon would get you top of the range optics and functions Comparable to scopes quite a bit more expensive

Mate, I have one on my 7 rem mag as well. Bloody awesome. Fair bit louder but so much nicer to shoot at the range. Especially being a lightish rifle. I have a 243 and 7rem mag, both tikkas and both carbon stocks. The 7RM with the brake kicks like the 243.
