Dont have a clue.
Would like to be able to see 22 cal holes at say 200-250 yards on a high vis target, but also clearly see spotting and scoring disks at 600-1000 yds in optimum conditions.
Want to keep the cost down for now, like maybe $300-$500, because I dont know how long or if I will stick with long range target. I really enjoy chasing hogs around more but there is a 1000 yard range close to the farm.
So far I have looked at the redfield 20-60x80, Nikon prostaff 20-60x, and an Orion Apex 102mm Telescope which was mentioned in a 6mmBR article. If I stay with it I would upgrade later to a high end spotting scope.
Right now I am sort of leaning towards the Orion since its pretty compact and about $230-$280 and no CA but not sure if it resolves enough at those distance. It is advertised as resolving 1.3 arc sec. Included eyepiece is 52x.
