What company makes the best rifle scope that is adjustable and wide angle?
I would like to purchase a scope to put on a rifle. I would like to practice long range shooting. 500 yrds. I like the wide angle view. I like the adjustable focus/zoom. I owned a simmons many years ago, and I have heard that Leupolds are good. What about Zeiss? what is the best scope? My Scope budget is a $1000.00 limit. Any Suggestion or personel favorites,comments and advise is welcome!
You already answered some of your question. If you are looking for a great value (relative to what you are getting, although they are not necessarily cheap in price) do yourself a favor and check out Bushnell’s Elite series 4200 and 6500, the 6500 would probably address your specific needs best out of these two choices (complete with a great warranty,a one year refund if not completely satisfied than a limited lifetime warranty thereafter as well as their awesome Rainguard water repellent lens coating).
The Zeiss Conquest is also excellent and of course a good Leupold will serve you well (VX-III or higher), but you will generally pay more money for these brands for the same or less features than what you will get for less money in the Bushnell Elite series. However with your budget you should have no problem getting what you want regardless of which of these brands you choose. I have attached some links that offer you a good selection with competitive pricing. Good luck!
