best rifle scope for under 600 euro ????

SpannerMonkey

if you had 600 euro to buy a scope what would you buy looking for medium magnification something like 4-14

It wasn't me!

For sheer glass quality, you'll be very hard pushed to beat Weaver, in my opinion. I have a Weaver v-16, 4-16x42 and the glass on it matches far more expensive scopes. I would have no complaints about mine, and I got it from the states for 250 including shipping, VAT and duty.

Having held one yesterday and seen the quality of it, also given the mag. range, I'm saving up for one of these:

for about E600

another option is :

For about E380

Leupold is always a safe bet so maybe a VXIII. Bushnell 4200 also seems to get rave reviews. Both of those are within your budget.
If you wanted to save a few more quid, I'd very much recommend a Burris Fullfield II 4.5-14. Very clear and sharp image, and a very solid and all round quality scope. Ballistic plex is a great reticle as well. I'm actually sorry I sold my one with the rifle it was on.

I'm after a second one now for my new buy a Sako 75 in 308.

Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40 US import. About $450+shipping and whatever the taxman stings you for.

As a new scope i'd only have one choice, the Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14x50 with target turrets. Either import or get one off e-gun.
I have the 6.5-20x50 and love it, very good glass and not too heavy.

It's a german site for guns 'n stuff. www.egun.de
very good site to pick up scopes but conquest's will show up only every now and then. The english translation is a pain in the butt and doesn't work very well.

Hey chief, what web site did you use to buy a scope from the states? All the ones I checked out didnt ship outside the states.

The Optic Zone as I recall. Decent people to deal with, very speedy.
