New scope shopping for a 308 I recently had spun up.
I always find it daunting because it seems there's something new out everyday.
Uses are paper punching, steel and egg shoots. 500 and in.
FFP or SFP doesn't matter Zero stop preferred No less than 25x Reliable tracking
Budget- 1500$ Anything? Up the budget? Fire away.
I use a NightForce NXS 2-10 x42 Something like that. Too many to keep track off. This scope is a true gem. I'm looking for another. I think you would be most happy with it. If you can find a new one, the hunting gods are shining on you. Hunting scope I like 2nd FP
I never cared for the 6.5-20's,whether 1" or 30mm,mainly because they are tender pieces of fhuqking schit. Hint.
505yd eggs via T-16 FCH. Hint.
Said Egg Rifle. Hint.
Just sayin'.
Hint.
Fhuqking LAUGHING!...................

Besides the 2... 2.5-10 x32 , 1.. 2.5-10x42 NXS . I also have 1 .. 3.5-15x50 and a 5.5-22x50 NXS. With the summer heat, humidity and mirage the 15x is about perfect for me shooting critters and steel. The 22x power is really nice when conditions are right. Reticles on the NXS are very fine and don't cover much target. Can't comment on eggs however.
I have lots of 34mm scopes,but hadn't commented nor pictured any(yet). Hint.
As to Reupold's version(s),they are an easy pass. Hint.
To be fair,NightFarce has come a loooonngggggg ways with their reticles,but I don't SFP and have something called "weather" and can't do zoom selectors which rearrange flip-up caps. Erector travel is often rather trite,as mentioned. Hint.
OP's rifle sounds like my 'Rock 308. Hint.

I see the NXS 5.5-22x50 is advertising 100moa of elevation. Likely way more than I'd ever need. It's 3x under what I'd prefer on the magnification, but could be a contender.

You really should go show those do nothing losers how to shoot.
Wait, you're about buying chi-com crap, staging pics, and authentic frontier gibberish, NOT actually shooting on the clock under pressure.
I'm afforded the luxuries of not being forced to guess. Hint.

Again, you're all blow and no show. You're fat and couldn't put your "amazing" collection to any real hard use due to an acute lack of cardio and a large excess of chin. There's a certain irony on knowing your gear can take more abuse than your fat midget body though.....
You repeat the same BS advice over and over, and it's all stuff people knew decades ago.
You live in a place with endless hunting opportunities, yet you shoot dinks, and I've yet to see a big mountain goat, but, again, that hunting takes physical fitness, not shooting from a boat, so it's out of your comfort zone.
But, hey, keep posting pics from the 80's, buying stuff, and acting like people GAS about your mail.
Maybe buy a few quality scopes and really shoot instead of staging your gear for glamour shots and plinking at rocks.
Or, take a trip and show the "do nothing" crowd how it's done.
Please keep extolling your very WELL founded and countless Brokedick Window Licking Insecurities,as you greedily read my EVERY word and gawk EVERY Splendid Pixel while you "live" vicariously...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint. Congratulations?!?

Fortunately for you,Imagination,Pretend,Emoji's and Stolen Pictures are free,so even YOU can "afford" to "contribute",although you couldn't even begin to speak in the first hand with wares that exist. Hint.
Pardon The Splendor. Hint.
Your HILARIOUS Vagina Monologue on the Sweet "Satisfactions" that are your's,being stuck on the outside and DESPERATELY looking in,is funnier than fhuqk. Hint.
Bless your poor poor(literally) heart.

Remember when you said I was an idiot for putting a fixed 10x on a 50bmg? I do. It was back in your "Leupold are the best" days

If I could change one thing about the NF NXS , it would be the eye piece/power selector for running flipp-up caps. That said ... I don't have nearly the rain SE AK has. If the weather is rather wet ,I just run scope coats .

NightFarce tries,but misses mightily,on the average. Hint.

has Big Stick ever contributed valuable anything to a discussion?
My cousin recently picked up a Nightforce, after I took a view through it, seemed to be just fine optics wise, it was a 16x model, so not quite what OP is looking for but just scoping around known landscapes between 100-1000y or so, it seemed very good. And while I can't recall the exact model, Swarovski, not being a scope expert, I don't know if they have the other features you want - but glass on them is amazing. Zeiss as well.

He a great reminder that you really need to do some cardio and put down the Cheetos or you'll end up with multiple chins and won't be able to walk uphill without wheezing. 😉
