[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 598035, member: 39764"] Roy......For chit-chat sake of course. I hear the new generation Weaver Ultra-Slam is quite an optic. I mounted an old out of manufacture Weaver Grand Slam on the bosses Ruger No.1 300 Wby Magnum and I was suprised at the clarity of the scope when sighting it in at 100 yards at the range.... I was also dismayed at the punishing recoil. Sort of like getting punched in the shoulder with every shot. A definite Lead Sled gun.... Now if Tasco comes along, all will be good.:D I've ordered a Vortex 4.5-14x50 LRT FFP in Mil Dot for one of my rifles, a definite deviation from my usual Leupolds.... and less expensive. I've come to trust Leupy glass so we shall see if I can have a relationship with Vortex glass. Seems as all the tactical side focus scopes are all tanks, weight wise, this one no exception at 22 ounces or just shy of 2 pounds or a box of granola bars..... I'd like to have an S&B but I need a new car too....... Choices are tough. [/QUOTE]
