If you were to go out and buy a new scope for a 30-06 in the 200-350 price range what would you buy and why?

I have several Nikon scopes and have not had a single issue with any of them. Sharp, bright,
durable and in your range

There is a Pentax lightseeker in the classifieds for $225 they sell for around $600.My Friend had one and they are very clear there warranty is just like Leupold.

All of the top brand names make a great scope, I like Nikon, Sightron and Weaver(V series best bang for the buck).  I have a couple of leupolds and they are good but it is the only scope that I've ever had to use the warrenty.  If I were to scope a 30-06 for deer and elk now I'd look at a 1.5x6x42, 2x7, 2.5x8 or 3x9.  I like having a larger FOV on the bottom end and 6x to 9x is plenty for long shots on big game.

Your money?  Leupold.

My money?...Bushnell Elite 4200 ($249), Nikon Team Primos ($199), Zeiss Conquest($350)
All of the scopes I listed have VX3 quality glass and better construction....Less likely to need to use the warranty.

[Huntbear]

Bushnell Elite, Nikon, Leupold, Burris, maybe even look at the new Vortex scopes.

They are all excellent scopes
