[QUOTE="LBnM, post: 1971628, member: 817"] If he bought a Rem 700 in .308 he made a good sensible choice for an all around gun. Many of the whiz-bang scopes mentioned are not a good sensible choice for a Rem short action (deer gun, I assume?) Why don't you ask him what he would like to have. $300 (or less) will buy you any number of good serviceable scopes for a deer hunter. SWFA or Midway are good choices for the purchase. Don't go overboard on magnification unless he is heavy into long range varmint shooting. A 3-9x will work for about anything and many cases a 2-7x is better for a short action. [/QUOTE]
