G day mate.
I have used the bushnell banner series of scopes on a 220 swift back home,found them to work just fine.
My mate Mick had one on his 243 fro two years before he could afford to up grade.
Hope this helps

I have been using a Weaver T Series in fixed 36 power for years and it has never let me down.
It has the 1/8th min dot reticle.
The V Series Weavers are also great, they have Target Turrets and with the use of a 20 min. tapered rail will get you on target at 1,000yds.

Cheers

G'Day All,
Weaver T24 or T36, both have 1/8 clicks and around $700- a cheap and effective way to start.

Then save up for a NF BR model in 12-42x same 1/8 clicks and choice of reticles. Then keep the weaver as a back up scope.
