Thread: A few pieces of advice sought- Famous last words I know

It all comes down to what you can afford and how ejoyable you want the experience to be and of course success rate also comes into the equation.

I was using the same scope as you which came on a Tikka package from h&f, I shot some deer but didn't really love the set up and felt I wasn't 100% confident with what I was using.

I bought a Swavo Z5 and put it on the riffle, I went to the range and practiced shooting at 100-500 meters. I could use my range finder dial the scope, bang, flop, almost too easy.

I have since bought a 223 and put the same scope on it, I have sighted it from 100 - 400 meters and using my range finder it is a killing machine.

I don't call it scope snobbery I call it enjoyable, practical and extremely successful hunting. If you can afford it and want the above then I would highly recommend however if on a budget then what you have is fine to go hunting.
