[QUOTE="Broz, post: 374064, member: 7503"] Guys, so far all is good with the 8x32 on this rifle. I fitted the Near base so I am 2 moa off bottom when zeroed at 250. This gives me enough up to reach 1800 yards. I have not had any trouble with it so far as far as mirage or heat waves are concerned. I shot my best ever 1000 yrd group with this rifle right after I put it on, that was encouraging. I have only shot it to 1400 yards so far. But I did make a first round cold bore hit on a 7" target at 1400. It does take a bit to get on target on 32 power. But nothing I have a problem with. If so, I can always crank it down. So at this point, until I get more trigger time with it, here is how I see it. For a rifle you are shooting past 1000 yards I think it is a plus. As for a comparison to the 5.5x22 I took off. Well, Like I said, I have enough elevatio to do 1800 yards. Thats enough for me. If I get to missing my 5.5x22 I can always put tape over 23 through 32. Then I have an 8x22 right.. Ha ha. I never used 5.5 to 7 anyway. Jeff gun) gun) [/QUOTE]
