Hi Guys. i shoot a Bergara HMR in 6.5Creedmoor

I have been looking for some time at new scopes, i currently have a 4/16x50 Nikon prostaff7 with a BCD reticle (so you know i'm poor)

i shoot F class at 600yds but am looking to stretch her legs out in prs ranging from 100 to 1000 i know my turrets fall short from accurate incremental adjustment so i have been using the bcd.

do we know of a scope that has a bcd reticle for 6.5creed that also has a turret i can trust?

i'm looking to continue with Fclass but know that in our prs matches that speed and acquisition of the target are quality's i am looking for.

any guidance is appreciated.


John

A quick Google search shows that such scopes exist, but seem to be very inexpensive.

I don't know what your budget is, but might I suggest something along the lines of the SWFA fixed 10 and learn your holdovers?

Perhaps you should contact Ballistic_XLR and get help with setting up your dope, for your rifle and ammo, and where you will be shooting?

You're welcome, and don't forget to vet your scope's tracking. On the Bergara Shooter's FB page, someone posted about his HMR's rail not being parallel to the bore. FYI.

    Battle of the Asian scopes

    Discussion 
    Given that the reticles in both scopes are something I can work with, which one between the PA GL 4-16x50 RGrid2 and the Arken EP4 4-16x50 gets the nod? I understand the PA has a little more elevation available, and the Arken is a 34mm tube. I understand that the glass on both is surprisingly good for the price point of the scope, and the Arken has very good tracking. I would primarily be using this as a LR plinker out in the pasture out to 890 yards (farthest I can safely). Thanks for your time and input.

    ELR shooting scope on a budget

    Discussion 
    Rex, during your YouTube sniper classes you said the SWFA SS was a good scope to start with for the price. It has been a number of years since you made that recommendation, is there any more that you could recommend? Thanks

    Falcon 3-18x50 S18i 30mm Scope

    Discussion 
    Has anyone used the S18i scope. I know it is a lower cost scope but I am also starting out in long range shooting. I am currently using a Savage Axis II heavy barrel in 308 in a Boyd At-One stock. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
