Best scope under $1400

Thanks guys. I made my decision and went with the zeiss v6. I just don't fill like the nightforce has the same quality as the zeiss v6.

I hope you enjoy it, it sounds like a good scope.

I think anything other members have suggested will be great.
My only advice is to make sure you get a usable setup. For example I got into long range shooting as a kid and as a newbie my first scope was a Bushnell Elite Tactical 6-24X50. (Maybe 10 or 12 years ago)
The scope worked well, the light transmission was amazing and the turrets were perfect. However it was in second focal plane, the turrets were in MOA while the reticle was in Mils.
Basically it was very disorganized for what I was trying to do.
So make sure above all else to get a mill/mill or Moa/Moa don't mix and match. If your buddies all use Mils then buy to match. No reason to make it any harder on yourself while trying to learn and have fun.

Sadly I had to scrap that scope and re-buy another $800 scope that was on par for what I was doing. Very costly mistake for a 16 year old making $10 an hour.

Sightron SIII 10-50 about 1k$. Great glass for the money. I have 3 and love them. I've used one of them on my 300 wm for 1k+ targets. I also have a 8-80 March, so I know good glass, but the SIII is a very good scope. Several reticles to choose from.

Do you kind telling us where you bought the sight ron SIII? Thanks
