LR adj focus scopes vs. not adjustable?

[hofts]

i am thinking of getting a bushmaster varminter 223. i want to put a leupold 4.5-14-40 vx111 on it with varminters reticle.
most shooting will be at coyotes with very occasional prairie dog.

my question is this. i would like to go with the reg no focus scope because of the lighter weight, or would you recommend i go with the same scope with the lr side focus on it.

i would say most shooting is done from 40 yards to 325 yards.

let me know your opinions.....thanks
