Hunting scopes

The general-purpose hunting scope: second focal plane, capped turrets that get zeroed and left alone, and a magnification range that starts low enough for a close shot. Weight, eye relief and whether the parallax is fixed at 100 yards are the specs to read.

Scopes: 8
Magnification: 3× to 15×
Weight: 13.1–26.88 oz
Approx. price: ~$150–~$1,199
