Ok so here's the situation. I have a mosin nagant I got for $80. My plan is to turn it into a fun long range rifle for the desert. I won't ever use this gun for hunting, just target shooting and I need a scope for it. I have read a bunch of forums and I'm finding that the sweet spot for up to 1000 yards is 10x- 15x and you don't really seem to need to go huger than 18x. Also brand seems to be a pretty big topic of discussion. Well I have narrowed my selection to 3 scopes, a nikon buck masters 4-12x, a bushnell banner 4-16x, and a simmons prosport 6-18x. The Nikon seems to be the better of the brands but it doesn't quite hit the sweet spot with zoom. The other two have the zoom I'm looking for but not quite the brand. Any suggestions as to what I should do here?
