[QUOTE="Bed Wetter, post: 254747, member: 428"] I very, VERY rarely buy a scope new, and NEVER buy an expensive scope new. Hi-end optics outfits like Leupold, Nightforce, Trijicon have all repaired scopes for me if something went wrong and never charged a dime. I was not the original purchaser on any of them. If you plan on hunting a lot with this rifle, weight should be a consideration. Most long-range scopes are going to weigh 2lbs and up. Leupold VX6 is the exception. Vortex is clearancing out the Razor HD GenII 4.5-27x scopes right now. A few months ago they were $2500, now down to $1850 new. Used they can be found for $1650-1750. Very popular optic and one of the few Vortex products made in USA. As SDMF said, Nightforce NXS is good. Leupold recently came out with a Mark 5 series that has been receiving rave reviews and they can be found used/like new for $1550-1750. [/QUOTE]
