Budget Scope for Western Hunting?

[Kyguy]

The new scope being developed and tested by Form and Ryan is about to join that list come the end of the year.

When they're right, they're right. I just bought another Huron and three SHV 3-10's after selling a bunch of other stuff this month.

Element Helix 4-16x44 FFP - APR-2D MOA reduced from $459.99 to only $299.99

Does it pass the rokslide test? I don’t have access to classifieds yet. I just joined the group today.

I've been really happy with Element stuff, had Helix 2-12, Helix 2-16 and Titan 3-18. No issues with 300wm handloads.

Titan reticle doesn't jive with me but other than that they all feel robust, mechanics are smooth, glass is good, turrets feel great.

The Vortex Crossfire 2 is my recommendation and my go to for reasonably priced rifle scopes.

If you want to go cheap, go cheap. Just dont worry about dialing or low light. You’ll be good 10-15 minutes after sundown or before sunrise.

shot a nice muley at 220 yds w some cheap bushnell scope that came w a $250 remington 243 package.

Burris Fulfield has a decent simple bdc reticle.
So does Vortex Diamondback.
I have one of each. Burris is the nicer scope and might even cost less. One is on a ML.

also have a Huron 3-9x40 that was a great deal. Decent scope except for a few minutes of low light. It feels solid and will do all but first and last 10 minutes or so of legal if there are any shadows around.
