I was of the Lincoln Uni Hunting club in the mid 90's. I remember picking up a spotting scope we bought with Grant we received. Richard gave me a lecture on looking after optics properly. I was...

Thanks for sharing Finnwolf I no longer use a half-bolt. I had a number of times when the bolt would either be knocked closed (very dangerous) or knocked open (very noisy). I now use the safety...

I started out with a old M8-4x, then had a 2-7x32 VariXii. This was replaced by a Bushell Elite 1.5 - 6 x 36. This latter scope was great just rather large and bulky for the power range. Finally...

I have always hunted with lower powered scopes. The vast majority of deer I have shot have been on 2.5 power. At 300m 5 power will be plenty.
