[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 65046, member: 1622"] Jeza, Good news on the AW! The AI mount seems to be about the one thing I disagree with Pete on -but then I am not removing and replacing my scope frequently (at all). If you are anticipating removing/replacing the scope frequently then Pete's advice is correct -you couldn't sensibly expect repeatability with al alloy; if you will want to swap the scope to other rifles, then picatinny etc would be your only sensible option. If, however, you're going to leave the scope on; I find the AI mount absolutely fine -it's pre-canted and, in the world of AI prices, surprisingly cheap. It's also 'Issue' [Pete you can trump the 'issue' argument by posting the 338 pic I sent (minus details) I would do so to take the **** out of my own argument, but haven't got the pic on my home computer] I understand where Pete's coming from on this, but it works for me -and I drag my AW on the ground with just a scope and muzzle cover. Good price on the S&B, can't go wrong with a 30 year warranty, I did cartwheels when I got my 4-16 for £775. Alg, Never handled a nightforce (made in Japan aren't they?

It's big and heavy enough to use as a riot baton (but then, it's also strong enough to take it! unlike, I suspect, the Tasco -sorry, I mean Nightforce [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]) Pete, Good pic, must be the value of a small car on and around that gat -has your wife been fully briefed?!
