Scope for Mountain Rifle

30 minutes past sunset. I have mountain rifles, but I don’t hunt in the mountains. I hunt in mostly wooded areas and the occasional field in the southeast. Lots of hills and hollows, but no mountains. Admittedly, all of the scopes get the job done, even the $150 Nikon Prostaff. I really just...

Scope for Mountain Rifle

I have a .308, 7mm-08, .270, .280, and a .30-06, all Remington 700 Mountain Rifles. I haven’t decided which one will get the new scope. Leaning toward the .270.

Scope for Mountain Rifle

Appreciate that info. I have never used a 50mm and am trying to decide if I need that or just a better scope or both. I have several mountain rifles and all have what I consider a mountain rifle type scope. I am not opposed to having one that doesn’t fit the norm for mountain rifles.

Scope for Mountain Rifle

I need a good dusk and dawn scope for one of my mountain rifles. Really want to be able for my old eyes to see better the last 15 minutes of shooting light on a cloudy day. Don’t need dials or crazy high magnification; just a good hunting scope out to about 300 yards. I currently have a Nikon...
