I’ve built this gun a million times in my head and a few times in real life in hopes that I make it there some day.

A Trijicon 1-6 currently sits on my would be big bear gun for now.

The Trijicon seems a bit big and clunky and will likely end up on something else. May try the 1-4 version. I’d love a 3x Leupold but haven’t come across one as of yet....that and I’ve had more than one Leupold in recent years be bad right out of the box or be tits up in 20 rounds and my confidence has waned. Murphy rides my ass 24/7.

The closest I’ve ever come to DG hunting was a crazed thought to be rabid cow that I thumped with a 7wsm as she was heading for the hood of the truck to try and take me off the roof. Had a 2.5-8 Leupold that day and that worked just fine. I was certainly wishing for a 416 model 70 that day but the 7 stopped her fairly quick.
