    Personally I'd go for the one with the clearest reticle, which looks like the Refield. However equally important is having a scope that holds its clicks adjustments AND is very easy to adjust. No point have a scope that requires screwdriver/coin for adjustments, as you'll need to adjust every 10 shots when moving onto the next bank. But get a scope that holds zero and is easy to adjust, don't use mildots and holdover.

    There's a Vortex at Reloaders :
    Vortex Crossfire 2 3-9x40 V-Brite MOA #CF2-31025 - Vortex Optics - Scopes - Optics - Reloaders Supplies Ltd
    which is $399 and includes free shipping

    or a Nikko Stirling
    Nikko Stirling Diamond Long Range 6-24x50 Illuminated Hold Fast - Nikko Stirling - Scopes - Optics - Reloaders Supplies Ltd
    at $450 which is still cheaper than the Vortex, and better turrets.

    Best way to win - practise on turkeys and rams, as chickens are close being only 40m and pigs are easier as they're the biggest target option at 60m. Sils shooting does sort the men from the boys, give centrefire a try, 200m standing and still no slings
