My .358 Stainless Take Down has a Burris 2.5x with a heavy duplex reticle which is about perfect for my hunting style. My 7mm08 pistol grip has a Leupold 2.5-8 Vari X III with standard duplex. I had 3-9x40 on both of them but, prefer how they are set up now because of balance and weight.


Shew me thy ways, O LORD: teach me thy paths.
"there are few better cartridges on Earth than the 7 x 57mm Mauser"
"the .30 Springfield is light, accurate, penetrating, and has surprising stopping power"
