[QUOTE="300WinFan, post: 977752, member: 63996"] Guys, I have one hunting rifle (that's all my budget allows right now). It's a Savage LRH topped with a 5.5-22x56 NF NXS (not a bad setup if I do say so myself). This works great for mid-range/ long range shots, but sometimes where I hunt much shorter shots present themselves (deer hunting). There are times when that 5.5 magnification is just too much to find that deer in the cross-hairs, especially if I have to make a quick shot. So I have been thinking about adding a reflex sight to my setup. I have concerns. First I would have to mount the reflex sight on TOP (or on the side) of my NF. I have actually seen it done before, but am wondering if the sights have enough adjustment for being mounted so high? If anyone has comments/ recommendations I would REALLY appreciate the feedback. I doubt I'm the first person to ever have this issue :-P Thanks! [/QUOTE]
