what are you doing with the rifle?? it just depends on your intended usage. hunting needs are different than long range target shooting which is different than a tactical role to be employed in a shtf type situation...

I have the ProStaff 4x12 BDC on my 308 Howa 20 in HB. It will well serve you to past 300 yards.

I got a cheaper BSA on my 50 cal muzzle loader, and my dad has the same one on his deer hunting shot gun, but for a cheap scope it is very clear and functions great. I will see if i can find the link for them.

For SHTF a single power is best. Less to go wrong. My 6.5x55 hunter wears a 4x32. It may seem small, but it is a 300 yard rifle as set up. The scope is an old Pentax game seeker w/ a ballistic plex reticule. 0 to 300 yards without touching a thing. A Sightron SII in a 2-7x would be more then you would ever need.
