[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1367090, member: 41338"] In the art of persuasion, of which I am no expert for sure, the trick is not to convince anyone of anything but to make it their own idea. Also, it's never you job to convince him of anything but rather give him enough information so he can make an informed decision. Take a decently accurate rifle with a very good scope, already zeroed and take it out to 600 yards and let him shoot it. Ring steel if you can. Then pull the scope and rings off and slap on another budget scope with rings (should be previously zeroed too). Confirm that the scope is on and run it out to 600 yards and see how he does. Then slap the first scope on, confirms that it's on and do it again so the point sinks in. A gloomy day with so-so light will better show the difference in scopes. Then go back home and grill up some nice steaks and let him chew on the steak and how he shot that day. [/QUOTE]
