Refering to a couple previous posts, yes I have gone hunting with at least two guys who were under the impression that when the gunsmith installed the scope the rifle was ready to go. Once we were on the side of a mountain in knee deep snow approaching a small herd of bulls when the guy mentioned this to me. I got my elk, he did not. Never confuse being financially well off and educated with being all knowledgeable as you would have though both of these doctors would have known better.
