[QUOTE="orch, post: 631645, member: 35688"] need some input... i just traded my nightforce 5.5-22x56 npr1 on a whole bunch of aluminium and tig work my cousin did for me on my hunting rig... probably the craziest decision i made but the final product exceeded my expectations and he had to put up with me... anyways now my lapua is naked.... 95% of my shooting with it is at 1000+ yards on steel and hope to be pushing it out to 1500 and beyond (once i get some new glass for it :rolleyes: ) and the only hunting i intend on doing with it will be 700+ yards on set stands... after shooting it for the past year and a half i think i only took the power off 22x once or twice and i can't see ever really needing a variable power scope for this gun... so i'm thinking of going to a fixed scope power any where from 15 to 25 exposed/tactical turrets are definitely preferable matching turrets/reticle mil/mil or moa/moa, as long as they match no real preference good glass (at least clearer than my bushnell 6500 2.5-16) so what say you guys? any good scope recommendations or am i just crazy and i should just get another variable power scope? orch [/QUOTE]
