Many of the competition shooters use the Leupold 36X.  It seems to be the most popular.

For benchrest, absolute precision and repeatability with the scope adjustments is most important. I'd go with the Weaver T36 or Sightron SII 36X for that reason. Leupold makes tough and lightweight hunting scopes, but their adjustment system isn't quite as good as the Weaver and Sightron target scope systems are.
