Rifle Scope Needed

It came mounted on the rifle -- a Robar SR60.
The previous owner also left the handload data for this rifle.

If it was a scam, it was thorough.

Needs a bit more work before perfect but so does most items.

I'll second this - Bushnell has been hard at work.

Might want to take a look at Nikon Scopes. The Spot On ballistic match with a Buckmaster 4.5 - 14x40 is awesome.

I have a simple Buckmaster 3-9X40 on my M70 in .270 that I love. But I put a Leupold MK4 4.5-14X50 on my .338.

Two different animals. The BDC is fine for hunting, but Bushnell is putting Horus reticles in their new scopes. IMO their new glass is much better than the Nikon.

I went with a Nikon Monarch mildot yesterday. I thought I wanted a BDC reticle but learned that in the second focal plane, the BDC reticle is only calibrated at the maximum zoom. Since my intended use will include dark timber and shaded slopes, I suspect I will not always be able to use the full magnification at all times.

I would stay away from BDC reticles. They are too limiting and only work for a single round at nomimal atmospherics.
