Thread: Scopes for long range shooting

At the top end a S&B PM11, Nightforce NXS or an ATACR would all be up there, but they are a heavy scope and not ideal for a lightweight hunting rig.
To be honest, you don't need that much scope to get to 1000m, I have shot 12" plates very repeatable to +1000m with a VX3 4.5-14x40 on several different rifles but find it a lot more pleasant and easier to spot the exact placement of the hits with a higher mag scope.
My best advice would be to read some reviews and then go and have a play and look through those that you have short listed. It may mean a bit of a drive, but from personal experience, it's better to get it right the first time!
