    need some br optics help


    I'm buying a 12fvss in .308 from one of our members. The plan is to use this for a bench rifle in the 3-600yd range. While i have scopes setting around, i would like to find something with a fine crosshair, or a very small dot to help with the targets further out, since the eyes aren't what they used to be.

    At the moment i would like to start looking in the $300 range, i know that may be asking alot, any thoughts on this will help. Thanks blue

    in that price range the only real choice, new anyway, is the weaver t series. though the glass may not be as good as many of the much more expensive males, is is still more than sufficient. also, the weaver has one of the best tracking systems there is. tey runabout $400, but if you shop around you can find them as low as $340
    &quot;If you don&#39;t have me on tape, then I didn&#39;t do it.&quot;<br />-Rumored to own a few, various firearms.

    The guy that is selling that T36 scope is actually buying a scope from me, and maybe a second one if he sells the T36 .

    bluealtered,
    Now that I think about it that is kinda weird.
    -I&#39;m buyin a scope from you
    -the guy on 6mmbr is buyin one from me
    - and you could buy one from the guy on 6mmbr

    what are the odds of that????? :D

    nevermind.. This T-36 just sold on gunbroker, but the good news is he is buying both of my scopes ;D

    However, there is another T36 just like it over on RimfireCentral.com for $325.

    If you have a suitable scope on hand, you can have a dot installed for $75 plus shipping. See http://www.scopedot.com/

    Thanks rwo, that may be the way to go. I guess the biggest thing for me at this point is that i don&#39;t know much about fixed power scopes, but i&#39;m about to learn. blue

    I would recommend the new Vortex crossfire 8-32 scope, this is what I have on my IBS long range light weight comp rifle. I replaced my t36 weaver with it and found that it is a better scope.
