I have a Leupold M4 4.5x14-50 w/ illum. rect. on my Sendero 300rum. The recticle has already paid off on several nights.
Just got the same scope for my Rem700... I really like it so far.
Do you have Butler Creek flip-up caps on it? If so, what size fits the eye-piece? (The non-illum takes an 11, so I'm thinking 13 or 14... )

I can't believe with all these replies I have not heard one of my favorites!

I have an old Austrian Mauser (.308) with a Leatherwood variable power scope. I have shot AR15's with Redfield and Bushnell scopes, and I think that the Leatherwood is the best scope I have ever used.

I must admit having the best scope and best gun and good ammo doesnt mean a hill of beans if you cant shoot. i have a 1000 yard gun with a leupold on it shooting 1/4 groups at 100 yards and a2000 yard gun shooting 1/4 also with leupold . but i have killed deer at 450+ with my sons BSA on my 7 mag because my scope was broke so........... just had to say that

My Rem .308 700 VLS is topped with a 6-24 X 50 Burris Blackdiamond B-Plex. The scope has done great for me.
