Most definitely!!!!!!

After this year's hunt its a must.

Timing will be the biggest consideration.

Choice is narrowed down to:

Leupold 6.5-20X50 LRT but am down on the fine cross hair.
Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20X50 w/target knobs and plex, mil dot or #4 reticle..
Weaver Tactical 4.5-14X44 one of which I already have and would get another if I could find one. Was shooting at an 8.5x11 piece of paper with BB's patented blue + on it at 400 yds when w/the naked eye I couldn't even see the berm behind it. Shot OK too! Also its kind of neat to be able to move the group an eights MOA at a time.

Yes 5

I just received an as new Leupold VX III 3.5-10X40 Boon and Crocket for my deer rifle a Rem Model7 7mm SAUM.
Also have in transit an IOR 6X CQB illuminated for a 7mm TCU Short.

Both purchased at an awsome price on the Hide.

I also will need to buy the following
Swaro Laser Guide
Nightforce NXS 8-32X56
for my 338WBX
And a Nightforce NF 12-42X56 for my new F Class switch barrel Lawton 7500 in 7mm and 6mm.

Just have to sell some other rifles to fund the last 3.

Cheers Bill
