[QUOTE="jakerz, post: 1913098, member: 18966"] I'm going to be putting together a 308 bolt gun and have my mind made up on most of the parts except the scope. I plan on doing most of my shooting 600 yards and in, but hope to make that 1k shot one of these days. The things I wanted most are mil/mil and FFP. I've been doing a lot of homework and have narrowed it down to the 2 below: HDMR g2 viper PST Pluses and minuses of each (personal opinion, from what I have read mostly): HDMR G2 + absolutely love the reticle + lockable turrets + decent glass +- middle of the road on my price budget - no zero stop (although I feel that I wouldn't necessarily need it with the reticle.) - non illuminated (although I would rarely use it) - customer service is a joke from what I have read Viper PST + zero stop + price ($300 cheaper than the HDMR which would allow for a nice base and rings right away) + illuminated reticle (it's nice that it's there) + Stellar customer service - the reticle is okay and will definitely get the job done, but I like the G2 better Experience with any of the scopes above would be very valuable. Thank you for your time and knowledge, Jake [/QUOTE]
