[QUOTE="epoletna, post: 2023207, member: 87371"] Well I got into bench rest shooting .22 RF at 100 about 5 years ago. Started with a Kimber 82, then went to an Anschutz. A Vudoo is an excellent rifle, but I never figured I needed to put out the extra bucks for one. I put a T36 on the Kimber and won all my matches after the first year. Put a Sightron Siii on the Anschutz and my scores improved. In all cases, I spent more than I was comfortable with on the glass and trigger, and found out I could shoot moderately well with what I had. Point is, I'm not convinced you need to put untold numbers of bucks into glass. Yes, it gets clearer, the field of view gets larger, and the tracking is better. But the guys with more expensive glass are still making excuses for missing the bulls eye. What you can't buy with an unlimited budget is experience. You've gotta shoot, shoot, shoot, to improve. Buy good equipment, good glass and reliable ammo, then get out to the range. [/QUOTE]
