I think once you use the Maven RS1.2 SHR MiL reticle you’ll want to buy one

Damn. they are even more expensive than the Credos

I just bought the same rifle, I'm waiting on a Burris XTR3 3.3-18 to show up. I like FFP reticles, and it has enough elevation travel with the 20MOA rail to stretch the 7PRC to the full potential of the cartridge. If It's too heavy, I'll put it on one of my other precision guns and then I'll be looking for something that checks enough boxes but is lighter.

This will be my first lightweight hunting rifle, with the exception of my lever 30-30. Even with the XTR it's going to feel like a feather compared to my precision 308 or 338 Lapua.

Another new guy that can use more posts here.
I have used 3-9x40 scopes on our rifles most of my life, couple years ago moved up to better glass in 3-18x44 and a 3-15x44 my son and I are determined to never go back. The magnification and clarity have changed my confidence in longer shots and make it way easier to spot your groups on a target.
I know this is pretty generic info and I'm no expert on what's the best scope out there but I would try a few higher magnification scopes to see what's out there before making the purchase. We are now using Leupold VX-6HD and VX-5HD scopes made here in Oregon, but may be open to other brands in the future. I think it lists these scopes around 20 oz.
Have you shot the Element 7prc yet? I think that or the PH3 are going to be my next rifle. Just wondering how it is for recoil and accuracy.
