Scope recommendations

[bigjohn]

I use a 300 bo for hunting. Currently have a 3x p223 on it. The exposed turrets are terrible for hunting. I like the 3x power and would like a lighted rectical. Any recommendations? I hunt in the dark wooded swamp if that helps any

If you're good with fixed 3x, Primary Arms and Sig both make prism scopes with etched & lighted reticles and BDC for 300 BO supers and subs. Either can be had for under $300.

I went with the Sig Bravo 3. It has a 0.5 moa dot surrounded by a horseshoe. The dot can be hard to see at low illumination. Still, no regrets.

I have an older weaver 800364 and newer Burris RT6 on my comp rifles that are 1-5 ,6 power with lit reticals and low turrets. Both work really well

Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10X 44. Illuminated reticle. On sale at midway for 329.

Exposed turrents though.

For a fixed 3x check out a vortex spitfire hd 3x. Not exactly a riflescope but for what your doing and if you like the fixed 3x its worth a look.

I am a hair away from this:
Read the owner's manual regarding the reticle.

Exposed turrets: I've not had a problem with.

Alternatively there is this. I have the 1-4 older version and like it:

Then again there is this:

Or this, I've contemplated this for years but prefer more options to the reticle, may get one anyhow:

Good luck OP!

Personally the 1-6 Vortex strike Eagle is about as low as I go. It's decent glass for the money, has a throw lever, illumination and capped turrets. For LPVO I tend to go with Strike Eagles for cheaper stuff and PST2 if I want about the best thing under a grand.

I use one of these on my .300 blackout for deer hunting. Have the BDC dialed in for 125 grain Nosler ballistic tips. https://www.primaryarms.com/primary-arms-1-6x24mm-sfp-scope-w-acss-300blk-7-62x39-reticle

I’ve been looking at them. How clear are they?

 

[bigjohn]

Is it entirely electric cross hairs or does it have some with out the illumination turned in?
