[QUOTE="IridiumRed, post: 2670771, member: 24315"] I bought that NF 8-32x56 benchrest on Ebay. I've seen several good, similar deals come and go lately (past 8 weeks) on Ebay I was also keeping an eye out on Gunbroker, and then the "for sale" sections of websites like this Posting a WTB ad on a site like this / similar sites can bring good results, esp if you're casting a wide net (IE, you are open to several manufacturers, several sizes / powers, models, etc). BUT..... gotta be -really- careful on that one - lots of people have been burned by putting out a WTB ad and then having scam artist show up, promise the world, then deliver nothing..... so I'd only buy from reputable members with long histories w the relevant site + (hopefully) some positive feedback on other deals that have been done with other members.... If I were to do the WTB posting, I'd focus in on specialty sites like this one - things that focus in on doing this particular type of shooting, using this particular type of scope. IE, i wouldn't just go post a WTB ad on a generic hunting / shooting site, I feel like the BS / benefit ratio would be too high... too much risk, too little change of reward..... I'd look for a site where at least HALF of the postings / topics were about long range rifles & shooting Just my $.02 on the topic, hope someone finds it useful :) [/QUOTE]
