    Nikko Stirling scopes from 55Six are excellent. Run 5 different versions and have owned plenty of others over the years, never once let me down. IMO they have better glass than a $800 scope from a...

    I use a Marlin Model 60SS. Has been modified to 10 shot. Not at all customizable, but that's not why I bought it. I bought it because it is very accurate, reliable, and I like the look.174707

    Many of the cartridges that were popular in the 70’s have stood the test of time and are as popular as ever 50 years later. 243, 270, and 308 are still hugely popular, and the 30/06 to some extent...
