I'm building my wish list for a new rifle for next hunting season.

Based on a Stevens 200 short-action, it will have a .308 chambered 18 1/2" Varmint contour barrel threaded for a brake/flash-hider (I've had each for several years and need to do something with them).

I want to drop it into a modular chassis (looking at the XLR Element) with a Rifle Basix SAV-1 trigger.

Most shots will be under 50 yds in the swamps/bayous/thickets of South Mississippi hunting hogs and whitetail deer.

I don't care for the RZ600 reticle, or any ballistic reticles for that matter on my hunting rifles, but the advertised price of the Zeiss makes me consider "overlooking" or looking through it.

I want a nice, bright scope for low light conditions with a generous eye-box/eye-relief.
