Which scope on 6.5CM for hunting

[The Insurance Guy]

I took advantage of the Dikks deal on the 6.5 and now want a good scope for it. It will be for hunting but want to be able to practice out to 700+ yards. I really don’t have a Budget in mind but I don’t need the most expensive scope made. I’m thinking around $800-$1000.

What do you recommend?

I have a moa/moa Bushnell engage in a 3-12x42. Great glass. Every bit as good as the vortex viper line. Lockable turrets which is great for hunting. Pm me if interested.

For you budget, leupold vx5hd 3-15.

SWFA SS 3-9 x 40 or 10x42 fixed HD.

I have the fixed 10 and like it.

I'm thinking about one of these Trijicons for ultra low light

Vortex Vipers, Sightron S-Tac or SIII Long Range, Leupold VX 5HD, I keep hearing pretty good stuff about the Nikon Monarch 5 also. If you are going to be hunting with it and lugging it around on foot and wanting something lighter Vortex Razor HD LH, Nikon Monarch 5, or Leupold VX 5HD. I have a Cabela's Vortex Intrepid 4.5-22x50 and I am really liking it also.

I've had great luck with my Vortex PST 6-24x50mm.

This is what I have on my 6.5 Grendel. It's works great.

I've got it on my .260 long range setup.

My Grendel has a 4-16x44mm Bushnell Engage, which is another strong option that has a very friendly price tag for what you get ($300). The Engage has a 30mm tube, locking target turrets, and a very nice reticle.

I agree.

I have the Vortex Viper HS-T 6-24x50. The 6X is a little too telephoto for some hunting situations, so I put a Bushnell TRS-25 below it. Works great. Not my pic below but same idea.

NOTHING better than a sightron SIII for the money.....or considerably more money in many cases!
