Hey Everyone, New here and have a question. I'm in the market for a new scope for my Rem. 700RS in 280rem. I will be using it mostly for whitetail hunting along with some target work. I think that most of the hunting shots will be from 75 to 400 yds on clearcuts and Power lines and target shooting could be out to 800. (I hear that we have an 800 yd range at the military base here but have not been there yet).
I am looking at the SWFA SS Classic fixed powers in 6x and 10x---due primarily to price/quality (bang for buck).
Which power do you think would best serve these purposes and also which reticle in these two scopes would you recomend.
thanks, Rick
