In current manufacture, aren't there certain brands you see better through than others? Since you have a plethora of rifles I'd think you'd have a plethora of scopes and have an idea of what works for you.


Brands on my current rifles are Leupold, Nikon, Redfield, and a 40 year old Marlin 4x32. I've been on 2 mule deer hunts and 1 elk hunt. My experience hunting out West is virtually nil. I was hoping to get a feel for what scope the folks that hunt out there a lot prefer, as well as what 270 shooters prefer. I've been wanting a 270 for 40 years. Now I've got one, and it's going to be one of my core rifles after I retire. I want to get the scope purchase right.


Exquisitely turdlike in all of his many manifestations!!
