      Looking for scope ideas for long range shooting. I don’t want to go more that £1500 really.

      • What sort of distance you planning on going out too & whats it going onto ?

        • The range I shoot at is 600 yard. But I would like to say I can shoot a 1000. 

          It’s going on a Tikka Tac A1 in 6.5 Creedmoor. 

          • I run a Vortex Viper HS-T 6-24×50 SFP on my Remington 700 and comfortably shoot out to 600 & 1000m with it at Bisley. I think I paid about £600 for it & it does what I need. With a budget out too £1500 you could look at the IOR Operator 6-25×50 or for £1000 Vortex Viper PST Gen II at £1000. I looked at the last two when looking at scopes for my 300 Win Mag 

            • Thanks for that. The Viper PST was first on my list. At the shooting show next weekend I was hoping to check a few out. 

              • No problem, plus with the Vortex you get the lifetime warranty as well 

                • I have the PST 2 on my tac a1 .308 works great for me.  I think its in a good sweetspot for cost/quality.   you could always try and find a secondhand razor HD though that would be potentially in budget at the top end which would be all the scope you would ever need for those distances
