As a border line looney, I said to myself that I’m going to get rid of the low end guns because I can only use one at a time anyway. I’d build up what I’m going to use for the rifle first. Then I’d mount a nice yet functional, but not exorbitantly expensive scope on it to use for a year or two. Then that scope would come off and go onto a 10/22 as an example. Then I’d find the best upper end scope for my use and that would finish that rifle. I’ve long since forgotten what I’ve paid for a Euro variable Zeiss or Swarovski, but oh the clarity, resolution and light gathering ability of those scopes pleases me when ever I look through them. It has never been an all or none process for me, it is a work in progress spanning a few years.
