I like the trijicons I have and I prefer the post to the dot reticle. Not sure what rifle you have selected but try to match the scope to the rifle as in big clunky scopes sure make an AR a big clunky set up where an ACOG or a 1-4 seems to work well. With bolt guns i think one can get away with larger heavier optics like the 2.5-10x56 and 5-20x50. There again not sure what preditors you are after if its coyotes then you might be able to get some longer shots but if you are likely to call in something dangerous you may not want to have a real high magnification optic on the rifle. I find that the 1-4 Trijicon with red post is my choice or the 3x compact ACOG with red crosshair but I tend to keep shots under 300 yds.
