I understand, I am a Leupold guy all the way and I just picked up a Ruger 77 MKII in 338 win and I couldn't justify spending the bucks on a VXIII right now so I went with a Nikon Buckmaster 3X9 the local store had on sale for 170.00 and I put a Simmons Aetec on my Contender 7-30 rifle barrel.

I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them. John Wayne-The Shootist
