    I wouldnt mind something like the Bushnell G3 reticle, but I don't think this kind of tree is well suited to the mag range.

    I still have the 2.5-10x32 PST I bought off you years ago, in many ways its still one of the best scopes in this mag range.

    I'm not sure I'll ever sell it, I think it's my favorite scope.

    What do you think of the Mark 4 3.5-10?
    Does it still hold up to todays standards or is it getting a bit tired looking?

    Limited zoom range, big tall M1 turrets, no zero stop, not much travel per turn..... other than that it's mint. It's real light, I've always liked the TMR reticle, and the scope mechanically works great.

    Not that much has really substantially improved since - there's more choice in good quality scopes, zoom ranges have exploded, they're all way heavier, and reticles are more complicated.
