If you want to just play with the concept for a while and see if this is what you really want to do then pick up one of these you can always trade it back in on a different scope with very little loss.

What are you willing to spend?  That will help narrow it down.  Also, are there any feature (turrets, reticles, etc) you might want?  As you can see there is a huge price range to chose from and we can spend a lot of your money for you.

At longer distance you will want really top quality rings and base like Badger Ordnance and a level on the scope.  Depending on the scope probably a plus 20 moa base.
