Sightron SIII 10-50x60
After shooting my first 500m Fly match late last year i made the decision the 8-32 scope i was running wasn't going to cut the mustard as i wasn't able to get close to seeing a bullet hole without going to my spotting scope. I had a look through Luke's Nightforce Competition scope and the magnification was great but the price tag sucked so i started looking and its no surprise i settled on a Sightron with a MOA reticle to match all my others. It arrived a couple of weeks ago so i bolted it on and bore sighted it at 300y in a F Class match and it was amazing, i was able to pick the point in the super centre i wanted to aim at rather than just at it.
Its amazing!! If your looking at a reasonable priced target scope have a look through the big Sightron, you wont be disappointed.
Just for the record, i don't sell them or have an account with the wholesaler. I got this one through ADJA in Sydney.

But to answer your question NO. It would be used on a future project that is lingering out there.
