Ruger Gen 2 Scope Selection

[u/Teecan35]

Heyy everyone. recently picked up a gen 2 in a 6.5CM as my first ever rifle. Looking at adding a scope onto it now and looking for recommendations. budget is about $750 max (still need to get rings with it). I’ve come across the Burris® Fullfield E3 and the Vortex® Diamondback HP which caught my eye. Anyone have experience with either and can help out with some insight or other recommendations?

Will Be used mostly for hunting with the occasional day at the range. I live in Alberta, Canada and I’m told the 4-16x is the sweet spot for magnification and also I’m not a fan of super busy retrials and prefer simple ones which the 2 I pointed out are.

The Vortex is made in China, the burris is made in the Phillipines.

The cheapest vortex scope made in the Phillipines are the viper lines. Which are usually $1000+
