    If it's for a hunting rifle, IMO your best bang for your buck is going to be a leupold vx2 in that price range. It's a bit over 400. Or next best is the vx 1. get the basic old duplex reticle and just get good at shooting your gun.

    Ya what he said. $400 or so budget will get you a solid Leupold that won't fall apart like Chinese junk when that buck of a lifetime shows up.

    You can find Quality used Leupold or Zeiss Conquest mc or Terra for that price.

    Yeah. Scorpion riflescopes are waterproof and fogproof, just like every other scope made lol. Guys above are giving you good advice. In that price range look at Leupold VX2 and any of the Vortex products, hard to beat an unlimited lifetime warranty that the company actually stands behind

    I've got a Leupold VX-1 on my 30-06, 3-9x40 very happy with it. Standard duplex reticle, and great light transmission at dawn/dusk.
    Huntin, fishin, and lovin every day.

    I have a vx3i 3.5-10x40 duplex on my 06. Great all around scope. Even a fixed 4x would be great.
    Going for a leupold fx 6x for my 300. Keep it simple for hunting. Usually your game doesnt.
    Leupold is a tried and true classic for many years for a reason
