Need some good recommendations on an a2 scope setup.

[PistolPete75]

k guys. I just sold my eotech, and need to get a new setup. I have a a4 flattop upper, and a rear arms#40 buis. My goal is to get a quality scope for short range to midrange shooting, need excellent eye relief, and my budget is up to $700, but would like to spend less if I can. Note, most of my shooting will be midrange. I also need recommendations on the mount and rings which is included in the budget. i am considering the leupold 3-9x x 40mm ($500), and the Nikon Monarch Scope 3-9x 40mm BDC Reticle Matte which i think packs on hell of a punch especially for the price for $230. Anything else should I be looking at? Is the leupold worth the extra bucks?

Darn it.. I don't recall seeing a EOTech for sale from you! Anyhow, I would go with a fixed 4X power scope from IOR Valdada like this one: http://www.swfa.com/pc-2802-292-ior-...fle-scope.aspx

I would match them with the IOR Heavy Duty Tactical rings. I have a set sitting on top of of my 308 700P.. they get the job done. Not the cheapest.. but worth it.

I just bought a version of the Leupold 3-9x x 40mm scope for 145.00 its a very nice scope.

But then there is always this scope from bushmaster. It's still in my purchase list from bushmaster YES Even if its made in china.

I don't care that it's made in China as much as it's a crappy copy of a sub-par scope. The rangefinding is confusing and the POI likes to shift around (on the real $800 USGI ones)...

Sorry for the interruption and the thread drift, but Xeno, what does the above statement mean?

Can you clarify?

Using the BDC and their funky ranging=wandering zero.
