[QUOTE="Natty Bumpo, post: 331505, member: 10106"] I disagree. I have one custom rifle and a handful of factory rifles. A few of the factory guns are sub m.o.a. rifles. I used to think they were accurate, until I got my custom rig. That rifle just plain shoots. It's got an IOR 16X42 scope on it. I'd give up that scope long before I would give up the rifle (don't get me wrong, I like the scope, but I love the rifle). If you're willing to drop $1,500 on a scope, you can get some hellacious glass. But 1,500 won't get you a custom gun deserving of that quality of scope. My custom rifle will shoot great with any decent scope on it, whether it's a $300 super sniper, or a $2,500 U.S. Optics. It's easy to drop $3K when having a rifle built. I'd never consider spending near that much on a scope. Seeing clearly and returning to zero are very important; but, what good are they if the rifle won't put it in the X-ring. [/QUOTE]
