My uncle has a 378 weatherby for 30 years and shot allot of moose he has a bushnell elite 2.5x10 and has had good luck with it. But know he feels like it isn't good enuf, he wants to buy a 460 weather for a grizzly bear hunt in bc. he's not sure what scope would be good to withstand the recoil of the 460, he dose not use a muzzle brake my uncles got a 1000$ limit for the scope

AussieGunWriter is the guy you want to talk to. I believe he actually shot out a barrel on a .460, if that tells you anything.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

I met a French guy the other day. I asked him "Do you speak German?" He said "No." I said "You're welcome!"
