I cannot believe I'm about to spend $900 on optics

[CJ]

I can hand throw a 105mm howitzer round to a 1/8" group at 1000 yards.

I once saw CJ hit a 1000 yard gong by holding a 308 round in his left hand, attaching a chisel to the primer, and then hitting said chisel with a hammer.

lol, this reminds me of the birdman weapon systems .50

Damn, just 1000 yards!!....I hit the same hole with my eyes closed

All this shitty weather is leaving my trigger finger itchy.

So, this thread alone had me go out and try out an upgrade from the Nikon Prostaff 3x9x40s I love so much.

I went and got a deal on a Burris Fullfield II 4.5x14x42 . I consider this an entry level scope into what could be called the "real scope" market. Not the 1000+ dollar scopes for sure. I've not been able to shoot with this scope yet but I can surely tell a difference just bore sighting and playing around with it.

With the difference I've seen between....

20-50 dollar scopes and the Nikon
the Nikon and the Burris...

...I'd half expect the 1000+ optics to turn night into day automatically. Maybe even turn the bullet if you're missing. It just gets better and better. It's sort of like you can't understand how it would get better, then it just does.

I'm going to stop now. However, I think I'm getting optics fever too. It's quite a bit more interesting then it was to me a few months ago. I can now fully support the rifle cost and scope cost being the same - to an extent.

The weather is definately getting better.

I have some chores to do this Saturday, but looking forward to maybe a river day next Saturday.

Tac pro won't let you play on anything except for the 100/200 yard lanes unless you're a member.

]I was going to pick up a bushnell 6-24 for 480 from swfa bit they f'ed me. I'm assuming you looking through another one of their scopes because the viper pst hasn't been released yet(of at least I know of no one receiving one yet). Ive read several articles and everyone says its unbelievably clear. There are a few photos through the glass on snipershide that really impressed me.


How swfa get you? I was going for the 6-24 but then saw it only has 12mils internal travel so that was a no for me.

I'm assuming this has something do with the Elite line being discontinued at the time you maybe tried to place an order with us?
