    Our club uses a $1600NZ scope on a 308w FTR to shoot to 1000yds. Using it, I keep up with more expensive scopes, even beating @ebf on occasion. My suggestion is you want as big a view as you can get to watch the wind and to minimalise and maximalise mirage so a decent variable power.

    I'd suggest something similar to this would be good which is what we use and enough to spend IMHO. Two shooters I know in the NZ FTR team are also using similar quality/priced scopes and they are hard to beat.

    To get into NF looks like x2 the price unless you want to import.
