Default What are you running for LR hunting scopes?

I have been running a Nightforce SHV for my 7mm rem mag for a couple of years and decided to trade it for another gun. Now my 7 is sitting naked and I need to pick up new glass. So lets hear it from the long range shooters! What scope and reticle/ turret and WHY?

March-X 5-50x56 and Sightron SVSS 10-50x60. Both SFP in a MOA configuration. Addicted to magnifacation and those seem the best for my eyes.

Vortex HS-T 6-24X 50mm MRAD, and Sightron S-III 6-24X 50mm MRAD.

Sightron is lighter, but the Vortex has better knurling on the turrets for gloved hands.

Both have about the same optical clarity.

Burris XTRII 5-25X50. So far i enjoy using the scope. Its nice to be able to zoom right in to count tines. Plus taking pictures using the phone is pretty cool.

I use a Zeiss Conquest 5-25×50 with target turrets and their Reticle 20. I really enjoy the scope. The image is VG at all magnifications and I don't find the scope oversized and weighted for what u get.
