These are some great prices on some fairly nice glass without selling your kids...unless you just want to get rid of them?

I have one on my 7mm Rem Mag,as Walking Horse can attest..It keeps zero,its clear and anything that gets in the way of me and that scope had better start learning to be invisible quickly.:thumbs:
Great product,Outside of my Leupolds,I love it,better than any of the vintage Redfields I have on various rifles..If ya can,buy one.:wink:You won`t be sorry,even with a heavy kicker.My 7 mag was a featherweight and brutal recoil before I braked it.It didn`t matter,the Nikon took the recoil better than I did..:crybaby2:

It's hard to find glass that is that clear for the money.  I have a 4-12x40mm sitting on the Savage 12BV .223Rem(just got it), and will be giving a "report" on it after I get to the range the coming weekend.  The scope held up just fine on my Bushmaster AR-15 for the few trips to the range and coyote whacking earlier this fall.

At these prices, just might have to get that 6.5-20.........hmmm, will she see me getting it inside the house?

Just picked this one up.  It started life as a 12FV, but there is no way I'd be able to deal with that tuperware stock!  Got online(savageshooter forum), contacted northlander(screen name), and ordered a BV stock for it.

Savage has decided to drop the 12BV from its line-up?  Thought it was strange, but they own the company so I guess they can do whatever they want to do.  Not sure I like the AccuTrigger yet, but figured I'd give it a go.... testing starts tomorrow(1st round will go down the pipe at about 9:15am!

I have the 3x9 Monarch on my Hart barreled 308 . I also have a 2x7 Prostaff in the safe but haven't mounted it on anything as of today. The Monarch is very bright and clear and i would say it is one of the best for the money and much better than some of the more expensive brands from across the big pond.:thumbs:

There's something wrong with your rifle.....the bolt seems to be on the wrong side?:stirpot::poke:  Only kidding, I'm glad someone buys those left-handed models...need any new bows?  Got about 25 left-handers hanging at work.....
