Grasshopper Campfire Tracker G Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 6,435 Middle of the "Mitten"	I only hunt deer. All have been taken with 6x scopes or variables set @ 6x. Only exception was one I took with a 1.5x Burris that was mounted on a .416 Rigby #1 when I bought it. I sighted the rifle in and worked up loads. Many folks asked me what I was going to do with the rifle... I told them: "Hunt deer!" So for a laugh, I carried it out the 1st day of season. Unfortunately for a nice meat buck, it's course of travel passed within about 80 yds of my stand. Well, I took a sight for a double lung shot and squeezed it off. Good thing one was enough, because I could no longer see because of blood running in my eye. I swore then and there I would never shoot a kicker again with anything BUT a 1.5x5 Leupold! A decision I've never has cause to regret! BTW: Both the Rigby and that #%&@ Burris scope and I have parted company. GH P.S: It's ok to laugh is you want... "As you walk thru life, don't be surprised that there are fewer people that you encounter seeking truth than those seeking confirmation of what they already believe!"
