[QUOTE="rhill494, post: 898518, member: 75321"] Hey everyone, I'm new to the whole long range game and I'm looking for some advice. Just a couple weeks ago I picked up a new Savage model 11 in .308 with the Nikon bdc scope for a heck of a deal. I already know that I want a different scope for this gun, but I figured in the mean time I could use it to get a feel for the gun, also so I can get some reloads going and see what my gun likes. I picked up some of the Norma tac-308 bullets just so I could throw some lead out, and get some decent brass piled up; even with these rounds I can cover a 3 shot group at a 100 yds with a quarter. I guess what I'm trying to get at is that I really don't want to throw a whole pile of money at this gun, since I'm using it as a beginning gun to learn shooting farther without wiping out my wallet. Anything you guys can suggest to me as far as a middle of the road scope, loads, or basic upgrades for my rifle to get me going? Thanks [/QUOTE]
