Would this be any good for .204 ruger

So would this be any good for a .204 ruger hunting coyotes and prarie dogs ? Thanks guys.

So this seems to be a better option if I save a little more ? http://www.amazon.com/Vortex-Viper-4...er+pst+6-24x50

3-10 power is great for coyotes and p dogs, especially on a .204. It's not like your shooting 500 and 600 yards. I have a leupold with the adjustable objective and unless I'm shooting a fixed distance I don't care for it. It is a pain to have to reach up to the bell of the scope and adjust every time you move 100 yards In or out. The ad says $400 obo so if you can get him down on the price I say go for it. The nice thing with Leupold is if the glass is scratched or seals cracked you can send it in and they will repair it for you( usually at no charge)

Personally I like at least 24x for prairie dogs. They get small fast.

I might want a tad more too. If you are going to say 300 yards max, it might be okay.

For the same money, you can get a new optic with some better features such as better glass, adjustable turrets, BDC and several other options.

For instance, the Burris AR 4.5-14 is $399 and would be just about perfect for what you want: http://ads.midwayusa.com/product/228..._-pf_ci_google

I know everyone says to pay as much as you can for a scope. I have killed hundreds of prairie dogs with my Mueller scopes, many well over 300 yards. I put a Hawke scope ($250) on my new 17 Hornet and so far it is great.

You "can" pay over $10K. I say that is a waste of money. But when the budget is $400, get the most bang for your $...that is all I ever say. I have a few sub $100 optics and don't plan on replacing them because they work fine.

So is the vortex viper pst any better.

I have one on my 308, I have not shot it much yet but so far it has been awesome.

Oh trust me I looked at nice scope. Now if you took arms and legs as payment. Maybe we can work something out close by too.
