Default Dont think it matters

Pick something you can afford and looks good to you in a variety of lighting situations that simulate your anticipated hunting situations.
I have run most every Leupold on a copyote rig from time to time over the past 20 years and they all worked but I was often restricted by budget to VX 1 or Vx2 4-12.
I currently run a 6.5-20 Varmint Hunter on my 22-250 but use a 4.5 -14 LR on both my .223 and my .243.
My old BRNO ZKK custom in 22 varmint came with a period correct old K8 scope that was like looking into a keyhole towards a bright light in some conditions and the focal length was terrible it killed lots of coyotes before I could afford and switched it to a VX3 Leupold

Brightest varmint scope I have ever looked through was a Kahles but it came on a LH 22-250 rifle I bought for my brother and he claimed he couldn't afford a $1000 scope. I considered taking one of my Leupolds off and substituting the Kahles but felt if it isn't broken don't try to fix it.
They all pretty much work
