Hi all, I'm new to the hunting and pretty new to firearms too. Been shooting air rifles for a bit, but I want to start learning to hunt larger game, starting with whitetail. I picked up a tikka T3x CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor and am looking for a decent scope. Budget is $500 or less.
What do you guys think of these scopes for hunting whitetail out to say 300 yards max? I would also like to try some longer range target stuff as well, since I have access to a private 1k yard range. The Trijicon seems to get good reviews but does not have adjustable parallax, how important is that for hunting and longer range shooting? Any other scopes you recommend I check out?
Meopta Optika5 2-10x42 PA
Trijicon Huron 3-9x40
Bushnell elite 4500 4x, 4-16x
I have a Burris RT6 that I like a lot, figured I would check out their fullfield lineup, since they get good reviews. But after looking at a fullfield E1 I was not at all impressed with its quality, so its going back.
