Gun and gear reviews Help choosing a riffle scope

Hello fine folks,

Looking to purchase a scope for my 308 for deer hunting,
The market is a bit overwhelming with the amount of choice, and most of professionals i asked seemed to try to upsell stock,
Id love to get some of your opinions
Budget 700$

Thanks

What type of range and landscape are you hunting in? If you’re in thick woods a high power scope isn’t as beneficial as it would be for longer distances shots in open terrain.

Sounds like an LPVO might be a good choice, vortex is a reputable company and has lots of models to choose from.
