If I were you, the 3.5-10x50 would be it.

I either need to sell a rifle or get another scope. (I like all mine that are to wear a scope ready for use, even those that I may not have shot for quite some time,) My most often used rifle is an accurate, lightweight, .308 topped with a top of the line Zeiss getting on to about 20 years old. Never had any trouble hitting stuff in the "volleyball" out to as much as 500 yards ( which I really do not intend to do again - too much could go wrong.) That should tell me something. This rifle's twin sister is an identical model in .243, wearing a Leupold 3-9 Ultralight EER which I need on a .22LR for the parallax adjustment. My thinking for the .243 is for the Leupold 6x36 as a replacement. I do not see many used ones in this marketplace, so I may have to go new. John, I appreciate your work. If you have sold out to the industry, you sure hide it well. Thanks for being open and objective. jack

jt402,
Thanks--I think!
Actually 6x36 Leupolds come up for sale fairly regularly on the Campfire Classifieds. Usually they're M8's instead of the new FX-II's, but the M8's were quite bright. I probably have 8 or so I've picked up there.
