Skeet,
I like at least a 12x on my Mag guns, they are really designed for distance and can be used for such if need be. My 300 WSMs both have 4x16s on them. I think the make of scope is more personal preference. I have seen a few not so expensive scopes outshine some very expensive scopes. Myself, I do not like the Leupold reticle and no longer own anything Leupold, but a Leupold/Gilmore 2 MOA dot that Leupold bought out. Go for it, put the Elite on the gun and let her buck.
