Scopes for short range for score benchrest?

[TrxR]

What scopes do you all like for short range for score benchrest ? Going to be using my Sightron SIII 10x50x60 off my other rifle for now but will be looking for a dedicated one for this rifle.

Also what reticle are you all using? My Sightron is a fine crosshair and my t36 on my rimfire is a target dot.

Thanks

I use the Valdada 36. It has the dot cross hair. SOLID as a rock.

Where are those made?

I believe they are made in Romania. I have 2. They are point on.
Here is another thread about them.

And here is my post on that thread.

I tell you what sold me on the Valdada 36 for my short range Benchrest gun (30br).

I did the box test with it.

I put a dot on the paper. Shot it at the dot, moved it 6" down, shot it once. Moved it 6" right, shot it once. Moved it 12" up, shot it once, moved it 12" left, shot it once. Moved it 12" down, shot it once. Moved it 6" right, shot it once. Moved it 6" up, shot it once, and that bullet hole touched my original bullet hole.

I called Bart and ordered a 2nd Valdada that afternoon.

At the matches I shoot at it is a toss up between Leupold and Nightforce with a few Weavers tossed in, and a occassionally a March.

I have fixed power, 36 or 40 power, target scopes for short range and Rim Fire bench rest. Weaver / Sightron and Leupold.

The sightron is great along with all the "good scopes"
NF is what I use centerfire custom & UL
Weaver t36 is my 22 scope.

The Hunter class will need to share the low power ones they use.

I'm pretty new to the game, but I've settled on Nightforce 12-42 scopes. I shoot score at two clubs, and groups at one of them.

My eyes need the help. They were 'factory defects'.

The max I've shot is 300 yards, and the NF worked very well. I usually shoot at 100 and 200 yards for score, and 100 yards for groups.

I've never shot in any big matches, just the two clubs.

Hunter class is going to be difficult, it seems everyone discontinued their 6x scopes.
Now only place to get them is used if you can find them. Variables tend to be on heavy side makes it even harder to make weight. (10 lbs.)
