I wanted to get a new scope for my .308 150gr. rifle

i like big scopes and i want one that would give a nice magnification

the max i would probably pay is 1300 or maybe 1500

Leupold Mark 4 or Night Force can be had in that price range. Both are excellent choices. If you decide to go with the Mark 4 message me. I can get them cheaper than most.

Nightforce 2.5-10x32 would be sweet another one to look at is the Trijicon accupoint I have a 2.5-10x56 on my XHR and I couldnt be any happier im thinking about slapping there 5-20 on my bolt gun and using that 2.5 on my AR-10 when it gets done.

I've got the 2.5-10x56 Trijicon amber dot on my Benelli R1, it's very nice!

In that price range, Zeiss Victory Diavari 3-12x56, unless you want more magnification.

never said the intended use....
hunting (I presume?)

what type of hunting? stalking?
deer, hogs? nightime?
longest shot you would typically take?
shortest?
average?

etc..
