[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1344049, member: 10291"] I would lean in the direction of quality over quantity and acquire two good scopes for the two most capable rifles to be used for hunting and PRS. To be competitive in serious PRS you will do best with a good FFP, 5x25, (probably a MIL based scope). A top quality scope is required due to the very heavy usage of the turrets, parallax, power ring, and optical demands of the sport. For hunting use, the power range will depend on your particular range requirents, but an SFP with a max power of 15-20x or so will work well and have a lower cost. Either scope could be used effectively for LR steel or hunting. There are quite a few good scopes available. The Sig Whiskey lone looks intriguing but are not yet proven out. The Vortex high end scopes(Razor/AMG) are good but are priced like the NF. . Nightforce scopes are well proven, hold their value, and rarely, if ever, break. Given your military discount, and going with two scopes instead of four, I would lean towards a NF 5x25 ATACR F1(PRS/steel),and a NF NXS 5.5x22(hunting/steel)...... but that's just me.... [/QUOTE]
