I need some scope suggestions
 

I need some scope suggestions for a Winchester model 70 7mm stainless steel synthetic stock. All suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Well we know you have a model 70, in 7 mag. What are you hunting, and what ranges do you expect to shoot? Without knowing more, I'd say any of the moderately priced variables is a good place to start. As you probably know, you can spend about as much as you want on scopes.

Ditto what JD said!

Ditto. We need more information!

Actually we dont know if it is a 7mm Rem Mag or 7mm-08 Rem or 7mm Mauser etc. Doesn't appear that the child knows the difference.

Actually he has posted before that he shoots a 7mm Rem. mag back in his 7mm thread.
Depending on how much you want to spend I would start out with the Bushnell 3200 in 3-9X40. THese can be bought for less than $200.00 and are an excelent scope for the money.

Moving up in price, but not necessarily quality, would be a Leupold VX-II

Moving up again would be a Leupold VX-III or a Bushnell 4200. The 4200 is the brightest and clearest scope that I have look through that cost less than $1,000.00. They are usually around $400.00 - $500.00.

Then the sky is the limit.

Make sure you get a scope with good eye releif for a rifle like a 7mm mag.

RE: I need some scope suggestions
 

I like the Bushnell Elite and Weaver Grand slam scopes for the money.

RE: I need some scope suggestions
 

If you have one of the 7 mags (7rem mag, 7rum, 7stw, etc....) get the best scope you can afford. Leupold is tough to beat at their price. You have to spend ALOT of money to get a scope that is clearly better than Leupold. The problem w/ the cheaper scopes on a magnum rifle is that the recoil will break the scope internally(almost cost my wife an elk). If you are useing a 7x57, 7mm-08, the lesser scopes are fine. Good luck
