Title: I figured out my issue!
Post by: JJB11B on February 13, 2012, 10:29:31 PM: I needed a new scope for my 308 that hasnt been out of the safe in 3 years. That is why I havent seen many coyotes this year. I went and bought one of these. and parked on my remington 700 police 308. Its a Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50 SFP Illiminated Mil Rad. Retical

She'll reach farther than that :) . I parked the scope in Badger Ord. Rings married to a Badger Ord. 20 MOA 1 piece rail and bedded the whole contraption to the rifle. She should be easily capable of sending 168 Sierra Game Kings out to 800 accurately.

Post by: FALFire on February 14, 2012, 08:27:54 AM: That is the same scope I'm looking at, I just wish I could find one to fondle instead of risking the money on one and finding out later I don't like it.
