    Marty Henry liked post by Friwi On thread : Dreams are free - Ideal do it all riflescope for NZ
    The ideal scope would be something like a 2.5 to 10. Or something like the March 1.5 to 15 but with a 30 mm tube in first focal plane instead of 34mm tube. Also if Swarovski could have done their old...
