    On a 308, 4-16 or 3-18 even 2.5-10 will get it done just as much as 22 or 25+ power top end.
    I run a 4-16 on my 308 and a 5-25 on my 338 and have never felt disadvantaged.

    Everything in optics is a compromise. To get big zoom ranges with optical quality and other desirable features is expensive. The second hand market is well worth considering here as there are often big savings to be had on new.

    Some reliable brands for a dedicated gong/competition gun are Nightforce, Schmidt Bender, Minox, March, Kahles, the higher end Vortex and Leupolds.
    Don’t get discouraged about being warned off the 338 either, it’s good advice, but if you can afford to run one, have at it I say…
    camenzie and Eamonn like this.

    Thanks... it might sound weird... but when I think of what to buy, I'm thinking of someone using it in 100 year also. Family heirlooms.
