Just wondering why you would even ask for advise on what scope to put on YOUR rifle?


The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

I just ordered a Leupold 4.5-14x40mm AO, with the CDS for Rem 700 257 Roy. Its been wearing a Leupold 6-18x40 with the target knobs. I am carrying it to MT this year as my back up rifle, so the long target knobs have to go. If it weren't for the 5% chance of a low light situation, a 6.5-20x40 would get the nod from me.
