The cutting edge on varminting may be the laser rangefinder and then clicking off the elevation and maybe windage or mil dots. Keep in mind that the VX11's don't have clicks. Of course a 22-250 shoots really flat so you can hold off.

I am using a new Leu VX 11 6-18 on my Swift and I just hold off after consulting with the laser. It's faster and I am used to it. Even then the best price on that scope is $370 and a VX111 6.5 -20 is $466. Thats big bucks but the really nice scopes may last a lifetime and some guns come and go.

Maybe someone will suggest some other scopes for the 22-250. Other brands are out there to and I ordered a Sightron just for rifle testing. It's just a whim but their 6-24 X 42mm goes for about $350. If it's comparable to the others time will tell. The Sightron has click adjustments and smaller target knobs. The tactical or target knobs on the Leu's put Pamela Anderson to shame but just don't turn me on.
