Is there such a thing as having too much scope? I recently purchased a Tikka T3 in 30-06. Now I'm scope shopping. I've been doing alot of research and have found out that a scope is not just a scope. Anyway the more I get into it the more I want the higher end scopes with all the do-dads. The problem I see is that I will probably only be putting about 100-300 rds/yr down range. I have already decided I'm not cheaping out but I'm also not going to have another mortgage payment.
Also with regard to magnification I find myself going big; Is there such a thing as too big? I do want to get into some long range shooting because my club has a 600yd range.
My choices are :
Vortex Viper PST 6.5-24x50 FFP
Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50 FFP
The non FFP versions of above are also an option and a significant price drop. But somehow I feel that I would be cheating myself.
I also like the
Vortex Viper HS-T and HS-LR in the above configurations.
I know the choice is mostly personal preference, but I'm looking for more of a High Power Shooting geek kind of response with regard to personal experiences of their own and other technical jibberish.
