Savage fan with Nikon Monarch 4X16X50 ur choice in model and for the ranges ur describing .223 or .243 might be easier to get variety of ammo unless you reload then whatever caliber works best for you. Also consider AR platform where the sky is the limit in choices. The Savage and Monarch price about 1K, an AR with good optics about 2K.
