To shoot max 400-500 yards(.308)

Just bought two of these from Eurooptic, Vortex Diamondback HP 3-12. I usually opt for the simple duplex. Not mounted yet, one as a gift. They get great reviews, price is right.

10X
I use a SS 10x42M and have several M1As.
Great scope IMB.
You can spend more, but why ?

.gov used a simple Redfield 3x9 for years,,,

Leupold MK4 LR/T 4-14.5x with a moil dot reticle or a TMR reticle.

I have the ER/T on one of my M14's and it's a good fit. I've made consistent hits with it out to 900 yards.

I mean, if you're going to have a M14, you may as well use a Leupold scope. Just for nostalgia's sake...

That guy always subconsciously reminded me of the Shawkshank guy, who by chance also had a scoped M14. It just dawned on me who it was and what a coincidence. (best pic I could find of it)

Which now I think about it, he also played the bad guy in Highlander 1. Perhaps Highlander 1 was a true story, and after he served his time for being abusive at Shawshank he then fought Highlander, after which he enlisted in the Army and found himself being photographed with an M14 in the GWOT? Food for thought.
