I recommend you hold off and purchase a SWFA scope that has more magnification for long shots and less for hunting . Consider a 50MM objective for early morning and early evening shots . Remember if you get a 5X20X50 you'll have a scope that works for anything . I'm happy I asked around myself as I was going to do what you are considering (settling) but was talked into the top of the line scope because he said " 20 power is just the beginning of what you really want ! He was right ! I am now waiting for SWFA to make a fixed 30 X50 HD for shooting at the range . Or a 6X40X50 HD for everything else . 20 power is just barely enough to see splatter targets at 100 yards with a .223

Daddy said "If you really don't NEED something then buy the best ! That way if it breaks you can't feel bad "
This advise has worked well for me . That's why I buy SWFA they are hard to break and hard to beat in value .
