reivertom Campfire Outfitter R Joined: Feb 2018 Posts: 10,142 Likes: 4 Kentucky Hills	Originally Posted by hanco Denver made Redfields I liked the wide view scopes. My friend had one and wouldn't trade it for anything. Believe it or not, the older Japanese made Tasco scopes were great for the price. I have a friend with a 3x9 Pronghorn on a BLR in .308 that has held its zero for 25 years. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it. I'm the only one that touches his scopes and checks them every year. He's not a real gun nut like me. Last edited by reivertom; 02/15/20.
