Gone But Not Forgotten
I've got a new 30.06 Winchester M 70 classic featherweight and I need to choose the right scope for it.Like most Georgia deer hunters my shots are typically less than 100 yards (sometimes much less) with the occasional 150-300 yard opportunity on a food plot or clearcut.
I've narrowed the choices down to 2 scopes:
A.Bushnell elite 4200 1.5 x 6 x 36mm
B.Bushnell elite 4200 2.5 x10 x40mm
Right now I'm leaning towards the 1.5x6 mainly for the lighter weight,wider field of view and somewhat lower price but I'm not sure how much I might miss the higher magnification that I'm used to with my present 3.5 x 10.
Any thoughts or input would be appreciated!
