[QUOTE="Deleted member 103481, post: 1770765"] This saying is most useful for the crowd who buys off the shelf budget rifles...if you buy a 300 dollar 700, put a 300-500$ swfa 3-9,1-4,6 and it’s a good saying. If you’re spending 3 grand on a rifle it’s less important(not having a good scope, but having one more expensive than the rifle). 2 main things you’re buying with a scope, and a third kind of. 1.Reliability/durability- this is a must and without it your entire killing device is literally useless. 2. glass quality/comfort - “some” is a must, these days a 300$ swfa has “great” glass that you can kill an animal @1k with. 3. Weight - matters to some, costs a ton of money if you want to keep #1 You can buy a scope that will track for well under a grand. You can buy a scope that won’t for under a grand or over. You can buy a scope that’s glass looks like unicorns gave it a spit and shine and also still is durable, this is where big money comes in. You can make it light-ish if you really want to toss money to the skies. [/QUOTE]
