Some saw the thread I posted on my new Savage Precision Carbine .308. Now I'm looking to top it off with a new scope that is more up to the task than the temp I put on it so I could send some rounds down range.
Primary use will be target shooting from 100-600 yards. I will take it out further if I get the chance and feel I'm ready but the only range nearby that goes out that far is Tiger Valley and I'm not sure if they let many use their ranges outside of the classes they put on(I would like to take a few). I also wouldn't hesitate to pack it on a hog hunting trip, ESP if they say .50 cal is a NO-GO.
Right now I'm leaning towards another Vortex Viper PST. I like the MOA reticle and the zero stops on the turrets. They also have a great warranty. Still I can't help but shopping around and seeing what else is out there.
So, ranges generally from 100-600 yrds, hunting, and possibly a 1000 yrds in the future but probably not going to be common.
Gimme your thoughts.
