[QUOTE="preacherman, post: 103660, member: 2494"] ATH... your question(s) would require volumes just to scratch the surface... but a good starting point for discussion would be a nice Leupold in the 4.5-14x50 or 6.5-20x50 power range, depending on whether you're leaning more toward the hunting end or toward the target end... weaver/picatinny type bases & rings of good quality are a top choice... "MAY AS WELL DROP THE PHRASE = MORE FOR THE SCOPE THAN FOR THE RIFLE"... you'll at least have the equivalent cost in a good scope setup for a Sendero... "rifles come & go" but a good scope is hard to part with... in any case, there will be dozens of "opposing viewpoints" for you to ponder for awhile... whatever you do, don't be suckered in to buying inferior optics & avoid the phrase "it's a good scope for the money"... that money would've been better spent towards a good scope setup... be patient... go slow... the cheapest base/ring setup would be something in a Weaver type & the top end would be the tactical (Badger; Nightforce; Leupold; et al)...hope this helps...
