i just finished a 16" .308 build and topped it off with a SWFA 3-15. i think it's a little too much for the scope and plan to find a 1-8x at some point but mine is mainly for plinking and deer season for 2 months where i will be shooting from 0-400 yards.

Swfa 3-15 or nf shv 4-14 f1

Had vx5 and shv, liked the shv more. Leupold has more pop in the glass but not as much Resolution as the nf. I think the pop and colors blended the image together to much. Also the nf worked.

I just bought a new Savage 10 .308, and am looking to buy a new scope for it. I have looked at Trijicon Accupower and Accupoint, Nightforce SHV, Zeiss Conquest V4, and some Leupolds. But with the Leupolds, I just can't find a reticle that they make that I like. And if there is a brand that I am not thinking about please mention them. I am looking at 12 to 18 power (preferably 16-18 power). Thanks for the info and knowledge.

Vortex 6x20 249.00. At sportsman's

I recently got a 4-16x44 Zeiss V4 for a 30-06. I'm not overly impressed with the optical quality. It's more than good enough but above 12x it seems pretty picky and the clarity isn't quite as good. I need to get out an shoot it more to verify tracking but I definitely wish I had a 3-15x44 VX-5 to compare to. The next scope I buy will be a Mk5 5-25 for an FN SPR in 308. Love that rifle

I am looking at spending no more than $1,000, weight is not a big problem on this rig. I like Mil-Dot and BDC reticles not Duplex reticles. Thanks so much!

Did you literally mean a Mil-dot reticle? Or are you ok with a retinal with milliradian/MOA subtensions? Tract Toric makes a great scope with a well laid out BDC.

I really like the Mil-dot reticle itself, but i'm ok with a retinal with milliradain/MOA subtensions.

SWFA 3-15 is a pretty solid ffp scope with a easy to use mil reticle and decent glass. I have one and love it, there's a lot of better scopes out there but not for the same price you can buy one these especially if you can pick one up on sale.

Missed that, I meant reticle

I've been super happy with my vortex Viper pst scopes. You can pick up a gen 1 pretty inexpensive now that the gen2 gave been out a while. Available in sfp or ffp as well as mil or moa and the reticle and turrets match regardless of which you pick. I picked up one 4x-16x pst Gen1 for $400 from a yardsale a year ago, and another for $280 from the cabellas bargain cave about the same time

Yeah, my bad too. That is what I thought you meant. LOL!

I really like my NF SHV 4.5x20 and Zeiss V4 4x16x44.

Leupold's VX6HD I would go with
