(a 6.5 lb 257 Weatherby minus ammo, sling, rings, scope)... it sort of defeats the purpose of "lightweight"... makes the rifle top heavy... etc but... I don't care about how flat shooting it is or isn't. Match the optics to the accuracy and purpose for the rifle. "Over-scope" for load workup, then when you've found the load, choose a scope that matches its accuracy and purpose. If a fixed 10x is the right answer, then you have the wrong rifle under it. IMHO, of course. Tom Anyone who thinks there's two sides to everything hasn't met a M�bius strip. Here be dragons ...
