[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 913055, member: 74902"] Dan, excellent rifle, your going to enjoy that! I have one too and love it. I think the Vortex PST 6x24x50 is an excellent choice. For the price you cannot beat it. It will dial just as good as a much more expensive scope. It does cut some corners on the glass, but is is not really an issue. It is VERY usable. I would get the 20 MOA rail if you plan on shooting to 1K. Looks like for 1K, at 2700 FPS you would need 29 MOA for 1K at 4500 ft. elevation. A PST has 56 MOA total elevation and you really have access for dial up for about half that, which is 28 MOA. Just 1 MOA short. Hence the need for the 20 MOA rail. Also, the rail allows the cross hairs to be more centered in the optics at longer range and helps too. Good luck. You are going to have some FUN. :) [/QUOTE]
