    Best under $1000. I would find a gently used Zeiss. They have an unlimited and transferable lifetime warranty.

    Not my auction, but this would do the job and leave money in the budget for rings.

    No budget for a Barrett, I’d do a big, illuminated reticle, Night Force like this one.

    Either optic, I would go with a Larue QD mount.


    Post pics when you have it all built up!!!

    Pretty much what Warbirds said. My M99 came with a factory mounted 10X Swarovski scope that has range marks specifically for the 50 BMG cartridge from 500-2000 yards. Barrett quit that option shortly thereafter, because the money exchange rate made it an expensive option.

    Also check out used Leupolds, but whatever brand you end up with, I would be sure to get a scope ranged for the 50 BMG round.

    Schmidt Bender makes some awesome glass for the Barrett.

    Maybe a Leupold Mark 5, friend has a 4 on one and it has held up well as far as I know.

    When Barrett sells a package gun it is always a Leupold Mark 4, at least it has for the past 10-15 years. My only gripe is their selection, the last package 99 we got had a 4.5-14 power on it, most people buying a .50 want higher magnification.
