If you really are a "sharp shooter" you should qualify for access to promotive.com, where you can get 25% off Zeiss riflescopes. Plenty of great scopes for sale in the $500-700 range. I'd look into the z600 or z800 recticle. one option anyway.

I would go with a Leupold VX-3 with CDS 4.5-14 either 40 or 50mm. They can take a beating, good glass, great customer service in the extremely rare event you need it. And made in America.
I just put above mentioned scope in 50mm on my new 26 Nosler.
