Alright so I picked up a Tikka T3 Hunter. It came with a 3x9x40 Bushnell Banner on it but I want to give it a better optic and a nice sling. Christmas is coming and I’m making a list. 3x9 is fine since it’s primary purpose will be whitetail

I think the bride will be willing to drop about $400-$500 on me for Christmas. What scope should I ask for?

I'm with Biker. If you're going to spend $400-$500 on a good scope, you can't beat Leupold. For a little less I will also highly recommend a Redfield. They are owned by Leupold and made in Oregon. Outstanding glass for the money.
 
Leupold VX3i is hard to beat.
Zeiss Conquest is another good one but are a bit harder to come by in the used market and I don't think they make the standard conquest anymore. Maybe on the HD5? and thats over budget.
