Hunting Riflescopes
See the kitWe may earn from gear links on this page. Odds never change because of it. How we earn
Riflescopes organized by how you hunt: turreted long-range glass for basins and sage, an all-around 3-15x or 4-16x for most rifles, a low-power or LPVO for timber and stands, and the rings to mount them. Premium scopes come first. Vortex Diamondback leads this group in each section - the same line that belongs on a working rifle, including an AR - with Crossfire, Leupold VX-Freedom and Burris Fullfield beside it.
Long-range turreted riflescopes
Turreted scopes for basins, sage and long ridgelines. These have the elevation travel and a reticle you can actually use past a couple hundred yards. Diamondback Tactical leads the value group here.
