Scope for Saint Victor 308 rifle?

[SaltyMonkey]

I just added the Springfield Saint 308 Victor to my collection. I read the article that was posted on SA website a month or so again and the scope used is just out of my range. What is good affordable scope that some of y’all would recommend? I am comfortable with a Price range 500-600 max, usage range and hunting.
Thanks

I put a Sig Tango4 1-4x on mine. I like the optics but I took it off because I like iron sights on an AR.

The Nikon FX1000 Black is a great scope in that price range.

I would look at an Atibal 1-10. Light and has a decent range.

I have that on my M1A. That's some good glass.

Bushnell has some nice models for reasonable prices.

I’m running a Sig Sierra3 2.5-8x32 on my 16” PSA .308.

It pairs with a phone app and certain models of their Kilo range finders, and can automatically give you the drop for the range (illuminates a holdover point in the reticle) based on your load. Pretty neat; you can pair it with an app as well, which will let you plug in wind corrections as well.

You can just run it in “dumb” mode as well, where it illuminates a set of drops, which I think is consistent with most .233/.308 loads.

Got a screaming deal on it so far it works well.

BTW Nikon got out of the scope/optics business last year.

I suppose we should ask what is your budget?

That's why I bought 3 of the FX1000s. They were at a serious discount.

I already had one, the other three were to freshen some other rifles.

I've had the Swampfox Tomahawk LPVO for a long while and it has served me well on my Stag-10. Being able to go 0-10x is excellent where I hunt.

I'm planning on getting their Arrowhead LPVO or one of the prism scopes for my .308 Savage 99E lever action. The Leopold scope on it is ancient and the lense fell out on the last hunting season. So you can count on Leopold scopes to keep zero for 10+ years.
Bushnell, Leopold, and Vortex also make excellent scopes. But they don't offer 30% off discounts for Mil/LE.

I am seeing them online around7-800. Are they out there cheaper?

Natchez shooters had them for under $500 a couple months ago though I haven't been on their site lately.


Inventory maybe drying up so prices could be climbing for that reason. Bass Pro was selling these for about $450 recently onsale in my area.

Sig Sierra3 2.5-8x32

How well does it do inside 100 to 50 yards and transition from medium ranges to short range?

Is Nikon still honoring their warrenty since they got out of the scope business, or if not is another business doing so?

 

[Talyn]

I'll be using a Vortex 2.5-10x44 on a PSA AR10 I'll be getting soon.

Here's an article talking about how Nikon will handle warranty related scope issues now that they have discontinued making them
