So the title says it all. I'm looking for a long range scope that doesn't break the bank. I picked up a savage model 10 in 308 for under $500 and after shooting about a hundred rounds through it the rifle is very capable, and it deserves a decent scope. I got bored shooting my 4" steel plate at 100y and was able to shoot the bolts out on the first shot. Right now I have a $60 Walmart special 4-16x Center Point scope and I feel I could use more magnification. Features I'm looking for are illuminated reticle, more zoom maybe up 24x, exposed turrets, and most importantly sharp glass.
I've looked through the Vortex Viper PST and they're wonderful but a little more than I really want to spend.
