Default Best scope for .308 around $500.00 ?????

I recently added a Savage model 10 .308 to my arsenal... I have traditionally used Leupold scopes but the last scope I bought was a Zeiss 3/9 x 40 Conquest ( put on a Tikka .25-06). I like that scope ok I guess. I will say it is tricky at times at the highest power to acquire an optimal view ... I am no optics expert but I think it may be a noticeable decrease in eye relief causing the decrease in ease of target acquisition at the highest power.

My question would be ... What scope for the Savage model 10 .308 ? It has a fluted bull barrel and will be used to punch paper and possibly some intermediate range ( nothing over 300 yards ) bean field white tail hunting...

What I have been considering... Zeiss Conquest, Leupold, and Vortex Viper.

I am willing to spend a little more if needed..

Thanks for reading !!!
