i want the 50mm objective for low light shooting, ill shoot rock chucks and coyotes late enough that ill be walking back to truck after dark..
the 6.5-20x50vxIII Lr is only bout 40 bucks less than the same 8.5-25x50 vxIII lr. anything iver 18 powe i want to have a 50mm bell.
the scope will be used to as fr as i can acurately use the tool(my vs sf) no more than 600yds for now, but keep in mind im shooting at targets that weigh under 2lbs and stand only between 6-8"s tall. as far as i can tell alot of you guys seem to have some pretty big ground squrels. imiagine tryn to find this bugger at 600yds with 9 power scope. youd be able to find it till you get ready to shoot and cross hairs cover its entire body.
the 4.5-14 vxIII is my most favorite scope. illl have another before everythings siad and done. i cncider it to be one of the best all around scope that you can get.
as far as 1000 yd matched and plinking. i think ill leave that to you guys and keep my 25 power leo cranked to its highest setting while dropn rock chucks and ground squrels at 300yds and alittle further.
im saveing my ruger 22/250 as my all around varmitiging hunting rig. til wear glass with half as much power as the heavy 22/250. either a 3-9 loe. 14 power or 6-18. for some reason i think this rifle is calling for the 6-18, even though the vs sf is despiseing it and keeps pushn it away.
there is also possibility that i may get bored with the 25 power on the 250 and it may makes its way to the 300win for my go at long range shooting. but thats aways of. for now 3.5-10 will be just dandy on the 300win hntin rig
thanks fr the replu. you got me thinkn some
