The one piece of equipment that caught my eye was the scope that several were using, the S&B PM II 5 X 25. Love to have one of those. A wise man is frequently humbled.

I ordered a new rig just tonight. Already have glass for it. I hope to turn heads with it at the next shoot. It'll probably cause some, to faint dead away.......Or stroke out.....

I know that pushed me away from the .243, I was only getting about 2000 rounds per barrel before getting set back. Hunt hard, kill clean, waste nothing and offer no apologies.
