[QUOTE="youngtrout, post: 317501, member: 5373"] Hello Well the barrel and action went off the the smith for fitting- Hart barrel, rem 700 action, chambered for a 300 win mag. Now looking to find some glass for it, I have some time but also have some money burning a hole in my pocket. Rifle is going to be my main hunting rifle, shots mainly to 400 but want to start shooting out to 600 and change, longer if I can find a longer range. Money is a bit of a option but my solely- could also save up with some more waiting. Really just want something to start working with dialing in for elevation,,,,,,,,,,,,,but the zeiss rapid z has caught my interest as well Another big thing is minum magnafication, was looking at 3-4, I live in AK and always at least plan for the brown flash at close range (never happened yet, hopefully never) But had a finishing shot on a blackie at 10 feet this year so.. I was looking at the 3-12 nikon monarch, and the leupold 4.5X14's and the zeiss 4.5X14's Not sure about the 4.5 though, plan to test a bit with a scope turned up but think its going to be a bit too much Any others I should look at? Nikon seems to be the only one in that range, but the zeiss with the rapid z looks pretty interesting, though it seems like a bit of a crap shoot if your ballistics match up to the reticle? But its a SFP so it shoulf keep the crosshair size down. Just looking for something that has a reputation for being repeatable, and optically sound Thoughts, kind of a scattered post, but wanted to get some opinions Thanks [/QUOTE]
