A 3-9 is a good choice. The price on them is usually good because they seem to have fallen from favor to the higher power scopes, the best deals seem to be on the 3-9's these days. I have a 3-9 on my muzzle loader, my slug gun and several of my big game rifles. Never had the need for more or less for big game. The 2.5 to 10's are more expensive probably due in part to the popularity and due to the 4X magnification system. I have a 4200 2-1/2 to 10 on one of my rifles and it is a great scope. But I dont think it is any more suitable than a 3-9 for the same application.
