My budget is around $1000 for a good scope. The current scope I have is a mil-dot Bushnell Elite 10x40mml Tactical. It's decent, but I'm looking to upgrade. Does anyone have a recommendation? Mil-dot vs. MOA?

Leupold Mark 4. I don't own one but I hear Nikon makes a nice scope too.
I have read and heard decent things about the Leupold scopes. I guess what it comes down to is what magnification I want and whether I want a BDC reticle or dial. I plan on shooting out to 300 yards at the range, but want to eventually move up to 500+ yards for hunting.
What caliber is the gun and what will you be hunting at 500 yards with it?

If you can do it get a nightforce the glass is amazing .
Leupold Mark 4.
So if I settle on a Leupold Mark 4, is it better to have a BDC dial or crosshair? Mil-dot or MOA? I suppose for easier ranging, a mil-dot/BDC reticle is probably best?

Quite worth it! I have the 6.5-20x50 M1. At 100yds u can touch the target. 200yds is where it starts to perform. Clear, precise repeatable targeting, sub-moa. 300-500yds u have to work, but the scope is incredible clear.
I wish I could afford a Nightforce or higher optic Leupold, but for what I paid, I have an awesome scope, you'll love yours!!!!
