What's up guys. I'm trying to help a buddy get a scope for his new .308 hunting rifle. He wants a First Focal Plane scope and his budget is $400.
He'd like a FFP in 4-16x with hash marks for hold overs. Ideally he'd like a zero stop and if he can't get a zero stop then capped turrets so they don't get knocked around in the field.
I've suggested to him to look at the Diamondback Tactical for $350 because I have several, but it's got exposed turrets and no zero stop. I'm also unfamiliar with Vortex's newer StrikeEagle, but never seen thru one. I'm assuming Athlon and Primary Arms has something, but I'm not familiar with their scope lines.
Any suggestions??
