[QUOTE="lubbockdave, post: 2548994, member: 123339"] is it worth 2-3x the money though? Genuine question, not trying to pick a fight at all!! Several years ago I hunted with a marlin 30-30 and always thought to myself "no need for an $800 kimber" but I was alway curious about the higher end rifles-I was always bringing home meat with my $200 pawn shop Marlin with the $50 Tasco scope-yes this was several years ago... Bought my first kimber montana and the light bulb went on!! Now I have a safe full of toys that do the same job my old Marlin does...but it took me a long time to get comfortable spending the money-guess it is a "me thing" ;) I will get there soon with the glass I am sure-Daughter and I are starting to slide into long range shooting and i am sure upgrades will be coming once we get decent at it ;) [/QUOTE]
