Sometimes I'll buy a rifle for $500.00 because it has a gloss leupold on it, knowing I can turn around and sell the scope for almost what I paid for the whole rifle/scope combo. Ha ha..

Speaking of a Leupold 2-7, one of my buddies used one on his model 71 until it puked. He probably still has it in his junk scope drawer. I like gloss scopes too, but have given away many m8's that have came on pre 64's I've bought over the years. Seems everyone here locally think those are better than sliced bread on their pre 64 model 70's. I even bought a CZ550 9.3x62mm that had one on top. Gave that away to a buddy of mine. Sold some for $50.00 at a flea market too. The retro scopes I like are the old steel tubed weavers. Last year a gave my good buddy an old sporterized p14 and put a steel tube weaver on it for him.

One of my favorite/go to hunting rifles wears a gloss Burris FFII 3-9x40 with ballistic plex reticle. Try finding one of those. Its not going to happen:
