New to board, ran across a NIB Ruger M77 Hawkeye all-weather 6.5CM. Researched caliber and seems like good all-around round. I usually do large calibers for hunting, but after reading CM praises by reviewers figured why not. Got him down to $500 and threw in original 2 boxes of shells he bought, never fired it. I am considering a scope. I started considering Vortex Viper 4-16x and P223 Nikon, I have wanted to try out P223 scope and spot on for a while. I can swap out to one of my ARs that have nicer scopes on them if I don't like it on CM. I am thinking typically 100-400 yards will be most of my hunting requirements. Might want to reach out and touch something longer range sometime. I am thinking now the Prostaff 5 3.5-14x40? They offer reticle in mildot and their bdc, seems their spot on sw works for either. I am leaning old mildot. Want to keep original factory ruger rings so don't want to break over 42. Any advice would be appreciated, I am a huge fan of ruger. I own many and one of my best hunting pups is named Ruger.
