I don't think I'd put a scope on 375 & up for myself, the big boomer will be a 450-400ne 3" as I already have all the brass and bullets and boolits and etc I need for that. The gun that gets the scope will be either a 7x65r or a 30r Blaser. I know I can get 7x65R here in town, would only need dies for it, which are easy to get. Only question I have to solve on the 30R Blaser is getting some ammo to get the brass. Appears to be about the same price as 450/400 ammo (read cringe!!). However if I can get the ammo without too much hassle, I may opt for it. Dies can be had easily enough.
Sounds like I ought to see if the Recknagle mounts are avail on the guns avail in 30R.
Learning some useful stuff so far. Thanks!!!!
