[QUOTE="zupatun, post: 60558, member: 3533"] Hey all, I just picked up a Tikka Varmint Stainless in .308 via Guns America classifieds (75 rounds through the gun) from a private individual. Had it delivered to the local shop in Virginia. After reading a bunch of posts on what caliber to start shooting (other than my bow) I settled on the .308 (second choice was 30-06). Will be hunting elk, goats, lopes, whistle-pig and deer in VA, Michigan and out west with my Dad so this looks like a great all-around rifle for me. I was trying to figure out which scope to put on it--was looking at Bushnell Elite 4200 or Nikon Monarch in the 3-14x mag range. Dealer said he couldn't match internet prices on those models, but he had a VariX-III duplex in 4-14X50 he'd let me have for $300. [i]This is a deal yes? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img][/i] Great forum, tons of experience I hopefully soak up as I go. Thanks, Matt [/QUOTE]
