Nightforce is a GREAT fit on a Kimber Montana.

Pretty impressive that your ocular stops about where my bolt does. Do you shoot with your off eye?

'Bean, try to get past that I mount a scope different than you, and just revel in the awesomeness of that NF on my Kimber.

I'm just trying to figure out how you mount a rifle with the scope like that. You shooting from a picnic bench or something?

No, but HOLY SHÏT that's a great idea! Weed camo! I'm on it.

'Bean, i don't know how the heck you long-necked sumbitches mount YOUR scopes the way you do! crazy

I mount mine where they work for me.... I'm in a small minority here but there are other folks here who do similarly (cough Ingwe cough).......

I find the sun shade on the scope really helps keep things weight-forward, and should help a lot on those offhand shots on moving animals. The 5.5x setting on the scope will be fantastic for dark-timber work.

Jeff, you're always getting heck, on how you mount your scope.

Hang in there.

Who cares what the scope looks like. It's an aiming device.

Very, very few reliable scopes to mount these days. A Nightforce is one.

Hey, don't diss the sun shade! Not only does it put some weight up front for those offhand shots, but it could be the difference-maker if the sun was at a certain angle. Frankly I don't know how all y'all live without them. Must not be sunny where you hunt. Here in Oregon, the sun tends to come in at dis-advantageous angles, more so than other states.




I'm just screwing around. smile I stuck that scope on the Kimber to see if I could tell a difference in how the rifle performed with a great-tracking scope, to see if I wanted to invest in a great-tracking scope for it. Shot some tests with it on there, then pulled it off and it went back on my (much heavier) LR rig.

(What it showed me was that I DO want a Nightforce on my Kimber <g>... Probably the 3-10x42 SHV.)
