scope question....hook a brutha up?

[Jedabug92]

I have a mystery scope on my .308 and I am curious as to if Millet scopes are any good. I found one that i like and that is similar to what I currently have well the tube is different but the scope comes with rings.
SO with that said...help?

I've heard they are decent scopes for the money but, if it were me, and I was limited in budget to that kind of price I would look towards Bushnell. Millet makes good scope mounts and you would probably get a decent scope but I've used Bushnell before and they make very good stuff, even in their lower priced glass. I did a quick search on the scope you linked and, overall, it was liked but there were several people that had quality issues with theirs and complained about customer service so there's that.

Depending on budget consider Vortex, they offer optics that rarely can be matched for the price. Nikon also makes very good glass for the money but your best bet may still be Bushnell, they have a lot of new models.

Cool so stick with Nikon Vortex and Bushnell?

The Vortex PST line offers the best bang for your buck.

I'm looking to push my 308 to 600+
And a buddy suggested Luepold or Nikon

leupold and nikon make good scopes. I'm running a 2.5-10x Vortex PST on my M1A and hitting targets out 8-900 yards is not an issue. Whatever scope you decide to get, make sure the reticle matches the adjustment knobs. MOA/MOA or MIL/MIL.

How clear is the image at 800?
And you mean like a mil dot with moa adjustments is bad?

Leupold makes fantastic scopes but I didn't know they had any in your price range.

I'm trying to stay around $500 for the scope

I love my vxr 3x9-40. It was around 500.
