    Cheep scope for new rifle

    sidecarflip, did millet make a scope ( buck gold ) that was worth anything. I herd good things about it but have no experience. Randy Wakeman said its a good scope for the money a good cheap scope for a new rifle.

    Cheep scope for new rifle

    I was just agreeing w/ the fact that when someone makes a statement that leupold is not a good scope due to the clarity they may need an eye exam. Anyway, one thing I found out the other day is that my eyes dont just need glasses just for reading. When I initially received the revolution in the...

    Cheep scope for new rifle

    I second the eye exam. You cant put a leupold down unless your on crack.

    Cheep scope for new rifle

    I thought I would offer another idea that has an excellent record. I also like the fact that this product offers good eye relief in the 4'' range, along w/ top notch glass. The Sightron one or two is a scope to be proud of and that you can depend on. I've never herd a bad report and yes it's a...

    Cheep scope for new rifle

    I am very impressed w/ the Redfield Revolution and everyone else who bought one at the range where I am from agrees. When reading the 5 star reviews, it's true when others compare this model to high end scopes. Just thought I would mention my experience w/ the 4x12x40. I have owned the the Nikon...

    wanting to build a "mountain rifle"

    If I were to hunt grizzlies or polar bear then the .338 magnum would be appropriate but for Elk, deer and such the 30.06 is a great round. 90 grains to 220 grains is the range available to use for anything in north america. 99% of the time the extra power from the .338 is not needed. 185 grains...

    wanting to build a "mountain rifle"

    I once owned the .338 lapula magnum, ( 8.58x70mm). It's main reason for being initially was a cartridge developed for military long range sniper use. The .338 replaced the .300 winchester magnum and the .50 BMG for anti personal long range services for the military. There is also the .343 Lapula...

    wanting to build a "mountain rifle"

    I was just wondering if anyone knows much about the .284 and is this alot like the .280 ballistically. I remember years ago talk about what a great cartridge the .284 was. I was just curios but for sure the .280 is long range for sure. It,s very comparable to the 7mm mag and i once had that...

    Do You Hunt With A Muzzleloader?

    meatyrem, yes I am familiar w/ chrony to a certain degree. Ballistics are very important part of my muzzleloading. The chrony is set close as to never hit the thing w, your projectile. The sabot portion of the test is past tense as the reading will take the first thing through. I would keep it...
