GBB: I HAVE BEEN USING A SIMMONS 6X18X40 AO PROHUNTER FOR QUITE A WHILE ON MY REM. 541T. BUT LATELY I BOUGHT A SIMMONS 4X12X40 AO PRO HUNTER AND PUT IT ON THE REM AND I PUT THE 18 ON THE SSV. I JUST SET THEM IN TODAY. I WAS SHOOTING THE SSV AT 200YDS FOR GRINS AND GIGGLES AND WAS HAVING LOTS OF FUN! I HAVE THE SCOPE SET FOR 100 YDS. AND I WAS JUST HOLDIN OVER THE BULL AT 200 YDS. I WAS AMAZED THAT I KEPT MOST OF THOSE SHOTS INSIDE A 50YD SMALLBORE TARGET AND EVEN GOT 1 BULL! NOW YOU HAVE TO REALISE THAT I HAVE NEVER SHOT AT A 200 YD. TARGET BEFORE. BUT RIGHT NOW I THINK THAT I COULD PROBABLY HIT YOTES FROM THAT DISTANCE. NOT SQUIRRELS. YET! JUST KIDDING. I NEED TO SHOOT THE SSV A LOT MORE TO LEARN WHERE TO HOLD FOR THE DIFFERANT YARDAGES. I BOUGHT THAT RIFLE TOO LATE IN THE SEASON TO USE IT MUCH. THINK I GOT TO USE IT TWICE. I SHOOT THE MAXI-MAG FMJ IN IT. HAVEN'T FOUND THE FEDERALS YET. I MOST OFTEN TRY FOR HEAD SHOTS TOO. GUESS IF I CAN'T SHOOT FOR THE HEAD I'LL JUST LET THEM GO. LUCK!
