Thanks for the input.I am shooting a encore pistol 308 cal.
I have a 2.5 to 7 T/C on it now.was just looking for a bigger objective for better light gathering.
I live in a small town called Rupert about 15 min west of Manchester VT.Going to New Hamphire to hunt the the 8-9-10 then back here for our opening day on the 11th.I like the 308 it real puts them down i have shot 3 deer now with the hand cannon hooked on it now.I got a pistol permit for NH so I will use it there.I hunt NY too but they do not give permits to non resident total not right. but thats the law so I am forced to use the rife there. good luck on all your hunts evryone shoot straight .
