New Scope and Rings under $250?

First time deer hunting this winter. Looking for a good value scope and rings to mount on my .270.
I know you get what you pay for with optics but I'm just starting out and I've got bills.
Nikon Prostaff? Leupold VX1?
Thanks. :cheers:...

Best Base Layer

This will probably get buried with sarcastic comments but here goes.
Best base layer bang for the buck. Need it for outdoors and snow sports.
Edit: Bought this jacket online (and pants) for $77/each (retail $199) but it's a little thin for my liking.

We have family all over the country so we are registering on Amazon.

re: Kimber Deal
Posted by Northernsouthern on 10/31/13 at 1:13 pm
I remember hearing from some folks that the Custom II (Kimber's entry level model?) is not as good out of the box as the Ruger or Springfield.
Anyone have a Custom II?...

Kentucky Gun Co has the Kimber Custom II for $655.99 with free shipping.

re: Ruger American Compact rifles, Pro/Cons
Posted by Northernsouthern on 10/10/13 at 11:30 am
First time deer hunting this year. I've had my eye on the Ruger American in .270. It is only offered in the standard size.
Not to start a war but am I better off getting the standard in .270 or compact in .308?
Thanks OB. :cheers:...
