Rifle is in.

New rifle shipped to Bowie yesterday. Going to get it scoped out either today or tomorrow. Originally I had planned on a Leupold VX-1 3x9x40. Longest shot at our property is no more than 150 yards. For 70 bucks more, I can upgrade to the VX-1 3x9x50 OR the VX-2 3x9x40. I'm NOT spending any more than 300 bucks on this so none of that "Go for the top of the line" stuff.

Don't forget you need good mounts and a good base...
I doubt you can get the VX2 AND mounts/base for under 300. The VX1 is a good scope and you won't be disappointed. As for 40mm vs 50mm, meh. The 50 might be a little better late in the evening, but how much better is debatable. Just get the one you like more. I prefer 40mm because I can mount it lower.
