Montana... Go to their website and request a catalog. I have one: informative, nicely put together, high-quality printing, free.

I was fairly sure it had nothing to do with the military but then, the goofballs who write laws against our freedoms don't know that, didn't want to know it or didn't take the time to discover it.

Mike, Then it seems I could get away with a 6-24X or 8-32X and save a boatload of bananas over the Nightforce 12-42x56BR I was wanting. I'll consider it, but you can't beat the "envy factor" of the Nightforce.

Time at the range is only frustrating if you can't hit the flunkin' paper to save your tokhus. Other than that, the question as to whether to have sex or go shooting is a toughie.

S1's post has its roots in the speech or article written by Rush Limbaugh's father. I am not a subscriber, but I'm sure you can find it on the Rush website. In any event, the post should be a powerful reminder to us today, when we think our "freedom" is being strangled because we can't get a...

I am putting together a 30-06 for shooting out to 1000 yards. I was looking at the Nightforce 12-42x56BR but am now wondering how much power do I really need for hitting a dinner plate at this distance when shooting a .22 caliber sabot and hitting same said dinner plate at 600 yards when...

Thanks, Alberta... now, I can have an all-stainless rig. Pricey, but worth it.
