Which scope should I buy? I just bought a Remington 700SS 5r Milspec in .308. I would like to participate in F-Class competitions one day with this gun. Which scope should I buy for $1,000 or less? I have three in mind but am open to suggestions. The three I'm currently considering are:

Sightron's 8-32x56 (SIIISS832X56LRTD) ~$850; or
Sightron's 10-50x60 (SIIISS1050X60LRTD) ~$950 to $1K; or
Bushnell Elite 6500 4.5-30x50 ~$900.

What type of reticle should I pick?

Thanks!

Click Value 1/4 or 1/8?

What level of adjustment should your scope be: 1/4 or 1/8 MOA?

For example, the Sightron 8-32x56 and the Bushnell Elite 6500 have click values of 1/4 while the Sightron 10-50x60 has a 1/8 MOA.

Limbic: You have me considering the Nightforce 12-42 Benchrest. What mount and rings are you using with it?

The Millett sounds like a great scope for the money. May be a great choice for my R-15!
