I know I paid less than $250 or so for the Nikons. One came as a package with a Savage 110 in .308. $380 or so out the door for rifle and scope. It’s by far the most accurate rifle I own.

The Savage trigger is outstanding. The other two live on a set of Ruger 10-22 rifles. One of those is their Takedown model. Every house in America should have at least one 10-22.

The Takedown lives in my truck and that scope has held zero very well considering.

For our AR rifles we settled on Aimpont. They run around $400 or so depending. Not cheap but very rugged. Wish we could afford the ACOG or Leupolds but that’s not in the budget.

Best of luck to you.

Thanks for the input. Having always had a liking for bolt guns, you're making a good case for a Savage package gun. :)

I'll check them out when I'm ready to buy my next rifle, regardless of what it is. I'm a little late to the AR game... got a D**S P****r last year and it was unremarkable enough that I punted it and said I'd just defer that project until after I'm a bit more well-read.
