Many years ago I walked into a gun shop to get some cleaning supplies just before closing on the evening before the deer opener. There were a couple of guys leading a small Oriental in the purchase of a deer rifle. It was obvious that the guy had no knowledge of firearms. His buddies had him talked into a Weatherby Mk V in .300 Wby. Then he picked a $30 Bushnell Sportview scope to mount on it. The shop bore sighted it for him and he was going to be in the woods the next morning without having fired a shot.
