End results...went with the z8i in a 56 from interstate guns. Too bad I didn't get to meet you Chris. Thanks for the replies everyone.

It's not fully/properly mounted, just test fitting.

I'm glad that's all it was. When I asked for you and they said you had something come up I just hoped it wasn't something bad. It would have just been bad if you missed it lol. Yea more than I wanted to spend...but I made the mistake of looking at it.

You'll never see shite with that glass. I did enough research on AR15.com to know what to put on my rifles for now on...

False. Objective / magnification, higher the number the better for low light visibility.

I had a bushnell elite 4200 3-9x40. It was a great scope. When my paw paw died I got his diavari 3-12x56........maybe it's the difference in glass but I noticed an incredible improvement during low light situations.

Whoa I just saw your stock. I need that. I have an old 1979 270 700adl that I put a straight Timney and a synthetic stock on. That's a magpul right? Do you have to do anything to make it fit right?

Yep Magpul hunter 700. I think it fits any rem 700...not 100% on that but I'd think it should fit that. No modding it just drops right in.

I been eyeing up a KIDD 22 that they do in that hunter stock that is pretty bad arse. Quick change barrels and some other nice things.

KIDD 22 with Magpul stock

I need to order the same bipod...that scope put a deeper dent than expected doe

Thanks and will do. With that 20" barrel it looks a little short without a can.

What scope is Swaro doing in a 60mm


My mistake...

It was the Zeiss Victory that is doing a 60mm

I've looked at so many optics for my new 30-06 that I got the mfr. mixed up
