Scope Suggestions
« on: May 30, 2005, 01:27:56 PM »
I have a .223 handi and wanted to know what is a good scope for target and varmint hunting.  I would like to stay in the $150-$200 range and would like something in the 4-12 or 4-16 range.  I have a FFII 3-9x40 now and it is hard to see the bullet holes at 100yds.

Right up front I'd consider the Mueller Eraticator 8.5-25x50IGR or the 4-16x50 Tactical.....for the money it just doesn't get any better!! If you order the Tactical from the Optic Zone by tomorrow, Jon still has em on special.....

Thanks for the info.  They look good.  I like the illuminated reticle as well as the 1/8in adjustments on the Tactical.  Sounds like it would be perfect for what I was thinking.
