Hornady, 300 rds in the air..

My quandary, I don't need a 600 yd tac-driver. Will be shooting mostly at the range.

I'm trying to get my head(pocketbook) around a new scope.

All mine are low X deer, shotgun, pistol, or red dot, with the exception of the 6x24 on my pellet gun.

I think I need something in the 3x9 or 4x12 range, but need to keep the budget reasonable.

Unlike some of the pro level QP's, I am not looking at scopes that start with a N, S-B, or V and end in a lot of zero's..

Additionally, Because of the "bull" barrel, this build is sitting just short of 8lbs. I don't want wheels on the bipod..

Currently, I am looking at the Leupold AR series. Anyone with an opinion??
