[QUOTE="Rhino Hunter, post: 1544964, member: 25461"] I would get a new scope. You never know when you’ll be surprised by an elk or how close he’ll be. I guided a buddy to an elk at 35 yards away when he popped out from behind a big pine tree. He had his scope set at 9 power...rookie mistake. He missed him 2 or 3 times until the elk ran far enough away where he could see him in his scope and he finally hit him. It’s your gun and your hunt. But I’d get a lower power scope before I bought my tag. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
