That is a beautiful rig. The eye relieve of the new VX6 was so long and with the huge field of view, I couldn't resist the 3x18. Its like the best of both worlds in optics. Had I done over again, I would have put the light weight Talley mounts on instead of the Leupold mounts. I do get into some long shots from time to time so the added zoom was too hard to pass up. I took a Black Bear a few years ago at 270 yards and that's about as far as I felt comfortable with my last scope. I was shooting 300yards with the VX6 like my last optic was at 100 yards. This new 6x that all the top tier optics have is increadable. I am now shooting this JOC 270 out to 500yards with this new optic.

It's not a 4x in Tildens. At lest I don't think it is laugh.. Nice rifle though..
No,it's not,now that would be sweet.

Mystro,thank you for answering my questions. 'bout the only thing I disagree with is the scope,but it's yours and not mine. wink

Here's my Feathereight 7x57 with a Leupold 2.5x Ultralight and Talley Lightweights.

By the way,I'm strongly considering taking this Black Bear hunting this November in Arizona.

As it is in the pic it weighs 7lbs 12ozs.
