Did a bunch of reading on scopes and decided it would be best for now. I don't plan on make this an ultra gun so don't need a super expensive gun. Just wanted a good shooter.

Thanks guys for the help.

i went with the buckmaster w/BDC for my .308. at about $300, it is a good value and good for 600 yards. it tops out at 16X. the optics are nice and clear and the scope functions as advertized. if i were to do it again, i'd get a little bit more magnification, as the rifle is good for 1/2 minute. perhaps when i get that AR, i'll put the current scope on the AR and get a better one for the .308.
