My wife has taken a couple deer over the years with our 6.5x30JDJ Contender Super 14. She has also hunted for 35 years with a Browning BBR in 270 with a Leupold 2.5-10. A story goes with the Leupold scope. Her first year hunting with me she was using a 100 Winchester in 308 with an old Weaver 4X scope on it. I had her do some fire form practice with a Browning A Bolt in 257 Roberts AI with a new Leupold 2.5-10 scope on it. She informed me that before the next deer season she wanted a scope she could see through on her deer rifle. She could tell the difference between the old Weaver and the Leupold way back then. That is when I got her the BBR with the Leupold scope on it.
