The issue isn't so much the weight of the scope. ..... It's like loading a dead moose on the top of a Suburban vs. loading the same moose on the top of a Yugo. Which one is going to handle the load better driving in traffic?
prairie goat; Good afternoon to you sir, I trust this finds you well this cool September afternoon.
I'll begin with a mostly sincere apology to you and all in the thread as we can't get SWFA scopes up here - no importer I'm gathering - so I've not so much as even held one....
We do have moose however and while it's not a Yugo - I do offer a Canuck redneck transportation device.
The Civic they told me, was never quite the same again.
All the best to you this fall and good luck on your hunts.
