Snuck away for a couple of days with a buddy to do some pest control. Still in recovery from emergency surgery couple weeks ago so took it easy. 851 rabbits, 14 wallaby and 2 cats later.

Im always amazed at how people can shoot bunnies at over 100 yards or even over 200. Its like magic to me, as someone who doesn't really get ballistics and all of the math behind clicking the scope...

Sightron stac 4-20. Glass is good, nice reticle but the dials are amazing. Would trust them over scopes more than twice the price

Exactly what I've got on my Sako 6BR bunny gun. 4W reticle, MOA turret cap. Def wouldn't be disappointed.

A nice rifle like a sako deserves a good scope. For rabbits etc at 400 yards or further magnification and clarity is everything. A fine reticle is also a must. If it was me I’d go 5-25 Swarovski Z5....

If you plan on shooting out to 400 yards on small targets personally I would opt for a higher power range as mentioned above. I have a 4 to 16x on my .223 and the 4x is good for closer stuff but I...

Another option would be Zeiss HD5 3-15x42, these come up for sale 2nd hand for around $900-1000. Or the new V4 4-16x44. Or Delta Ti 4-24x50 or the 2.5-15x50

There's many good scopes to choose from and the Leupolds and Swarovskis mentioned are definitely some of them. Since it's going on a varmint/target rifle I'd opt for higher magnification (4-20,...

Good advice above, you'd be hard pressed to beat this for the price and magnification is just what you need at your ranges....

Reticle option is important for varminting at those ranges. A fine reticle is best, the Leupold Windplex would be too coarse in my opinion, Swaro 4W is a better option. I had a Gen 1 VX6 with fine...

Yeah, I would go vx5 if the budget stretches that far, I had one for a while, sold the rifle it was on and would have kept it if it fit my Brno’s keeping the open sights. Cheaper option would be vx3...
