Jim, go to the "rifle scopes" section of this forum, and read the third thread- the one about parallax.  Pretty in-depth, but will certainly clear the water.

Justin,

All I can say is WOW,  there is a lot of knowledge on this forum!  What an awesome resource for newbies like me!  Thanks for the pointer on parallax, it really did clear up any questions I had, and I will certainly get a scope with AO.

Back to the scope model.......I have taken everyone's recommendations into consideration, and I am pretty sure I want the Burris 4-16x44 Signature Select Rifle Scope. To reiterate, this 22-250 will be used primarily for hunting coyotes (and the occassional fox that comes in) in farm country in southern/central Michigan, where the terrain if slightly rolling and fairly open.  I will also be using it for coyote/fox/bobcat in central California (wide open spaces) the beginning of November, as well as coyote hunting in northern Michigan (quite hilly, mixed farm and timber) periodically.  Anyone think I am making a mistake?

Thanks to all,

Jim

We all have our preferences, for sure, but you really can not go wrong with Signature Select or several other scopes in its price/performance range:

Burris Singature Select
Sightron S2
Bushnell Elite 4200
Pentax Lightseeker
Leupold VX-III
perhaps Weaver Grand Slam and Nikon Monarch as well.

Pick whichever one looks best to you and has the right features and price.  Personally, I am partial to Sightrons and Burris (and IORs, but that is a different price range), but you really can't go wrong with any of these, especially on a cartridge that does not kick a whole lot.
