I'd still suggest Nikon, they do have mil-dot scopes availableFor the price, I'd check something like THIS out. Its mil-dot, 6-18x40 and under $300

Its mil-dot, 6-18x40 and under $300 But he wants a low end power of 1.5-2x, not 6x.I thought a leupold with a custom reticle but it doesn't appear they do that for VXII or VX3 scopes in that low end power range.
you sir have made a very picky request not many scopes over 4 inches of eye relief. Nikon, but you have already stated that you dont want one. They dont generall come with mil dots either. not many scope that start in the 1.5-2X power range will come with mil dots as it is a long range sort of thing. I think the only way to get that would be a customised leopould, as you can pick your reticle. that might not be in your price range but probably your best bet. most scopes will come in around 15-16 ounces so your not giving up much weight. but if you really want 12 ounces and exceptable glass then mabye a sworo Z3 3.9x36(12 ounces and 750$) i guess the best thing for you is to order the new Schmidt and bender 1-8x24 and have them put a mil dot reticle in it. it will only cost you about 2 grand.
way to go blackridge. now everyone is going to find our cheap deals has anyone placed the level of glass in the votex optics?somewhere around BSA? better than bushnells? around Lupy and Nikon?
