I have recently taken my dad’s Vanguard barreled action out of its heavy wood stock and put it in a Mcmillen. It’s much lighter now and I don’t want o burden it with a heavy scope. It has a 24 inch barrel that I may have cut to 22. It’s currently wearing a 1980 vari-x II but I want to replace that with mow current glass. I want a one inch tube, very clear glass and the ability to use turrets. I don’t want a large objective as I’m trying to keep weight down on this rig. Would also like to have an illuminated reticle as I’ve grown fond of the one in my VX6. I don’t need or wznt high power on the top end, 8 or 10 power is fine. I thought about a Leupold 2.5x8 but it looks like on their website that only a regular duplex is offered. I’d like a ballistic plex reticle for fast shots at longer range when I don’t have time to dial. Scope could be second focal plane or first.
Thanks for your recommendations.
Dan
