Finally was able to get the scope I have been wanting for about a year. Just fits this rifle perfect for overall balance and power range. It is a Leupold VX3 3.5-10x40mm
I can see much later in the evening with the reticle leupold has over the Vortex and this scope is much more clear and less bulky!!
I have the same scope on my .308 Kimber and like it for the same reasons.
My Rem 700 Mountain Rifle in .280 and my Rem 700 SS in 30-06 both have Leupold 3.5x10x50 on them and have excellent low light qualities but are not as well balanced due to the larger objective lens.
The 30-06 has the Hvy duplex reticle for some serious low light hunting.
