Help me top this....

I went with a Leupold VX-2 3-9x40 with the Long Range Reticle for my new rifle... Got the screw in Leupold flip up lens covers. Can't wait to get this barrel broken in and sighted in.

 

Really nice looking rig. I am a sucker for wood stocks although I have some synthetic stocked guns my preference is wood. Heard a lot of good things about vortex scopes. I love the 30.06 caliber, doesn't get a lot of love these days but in my opinion is the most versatile cal. for a hunting rifle. Good luck with the new gun.

Next you can get into free floating the barrel, bedding the stock and doing trigger work. It's like bows, it gets addictive and according to my wife EXPENSIVE.

 

Finally!!!

 

Aaaaaaand here it is :D

 

That looks horrible, just horrible.....

 

I suppose your scope woulda looked better on her

 

Well.... it'd certainly look better sittin on my counter

 

It's not as pretty as this gun... But it will do. :p

 

There's a lot of meat there!

 

Tony, I had never seen this thread until now... 6 pages later I see that you bought a Vortex. That is my recommendation, it's what I have on all my rifles. I get to see lots of rifles every year and I've never seen one that I thought was hands down better. You can't beat the warranty or the customer service. Have fun!

 

Knowing how you make a living, Dubbs...your recommendation means everything to me...thanks for chiming in on this

 

Dubbs shops for jeans at a chic place in the mall. Don't totally trust him.

 

He could care less. :p

 

So how long before you shoot the darn thing?

 

Ask mother nature...the ***** won't shut the hell up....

 

Afraid of some snow or rain??

Should have gotten a synthetic stock. Heh heh heh

 

Synthetic stocks are
