Need a Scope Before October—What Would You Choose?

Ill keep my eyes peeled for a NX8 as well! It apprears nightforce has some awesome zoom ranges that im not use too. 2.5-20 is impressive! Thank you!

Also keep your eyes open for Swarovski. They are amazingly clear glass. I have a couple and love them. I hear folks say they don’t hold up well but mine went to Africa and rode in the bed of a Toyota for 2 weeks and did great.

Swfa is my default for most things. I like my mavins but not at current prices.

I did some digging into the SWFA 3-9 and really leaned towards the Maven. Its within my budget, but if there is equal or better quality for cheaper, im in on that! From everything I have read, SWFA is pretty resilient.

Use your Arken and the 308 your back east hunting. The 7 BC wont do anything better than the 308 for your stated use case back home, in fact it will be worse. It will have more recoil, less barrel life and more expensive to shoot. The 308's perfect for that. Order a S2H scope and join the wait. It will be exactly what you're looking for in an out West scope to put on your 7BC. @UncleNommies

The Swfa 3x9 and a credo 2.5-15 in mils are solid choices .. Have both and each one is impressive

Im not that illiterate

I have some bushnell scopes that have stood the test of time, never shifted zero and have killed some critters. Always liked the circle plex.

My last 2 scopes: Trijicon Huron and S&B T96 Polar

If you’re not trying to accumulate a couple scopes, buy once cry once. Get something that is just really good and pay the extra for it.
