[QUOTE="idefendem, post: 711295, member: 51933"] Thanks. I ordered the Sendero yesterday and so have a few days to settle on glass. I am leaning towards the Leupold 6.5x20x50mm M5A2 mil dot; need to make a call to the Leupold Custom shop because, of course, want it in silver finish to match the stainless pipe. As a standard option Leup offers any color in the world...as long as it is black. They do also have a very good customer service dept that has helped me in the past. I looked also at the Bushnell Elite line. As far as I can determine from a very limited review and inspection they seem to have pretty good glass for a $600.00 scope. I LOVED the NightForce, but did not love the price. While I am breaking in the barrel, I have plenty of glass around here to make do until my mind, my wallet and a tuned 175g Berger VLD re load are made up. There is so little you can really learn about a scope in a gun shop. I reallyu have to spend some time behind a scope to get a feel for it. The earnest, but rather young and inexperienced employee who assisted me was limited to handing me catalogs in response to questions. Nice. That is the beauty of this site. I learn a lot more of the goods and bads from experienced users. It really helps save time. Now, to wisk this past She-who-must-be-obeyed without unwanted scrutiny, I just need a(nother) good cover story..... Thanks again for the reply, WildRose. [/QUOTE]
