So I posted a month or so ago about a new scope for my 300 ultra mag. I ended up with the Vortex Viper 4-12x40. It looks nice. I'll have to put up some pics sometime. I've always shot a regular quadra-plex scope zero'd at 300 and guess at the hold over. But this new scope has turrets and bdc. I was planning on just using the bdc but after some reading it sounds like turrets is the way to go. What would you guys suggest as far as zeroing? Is there any way I can use the turrets and bdc? If I needed to do a quick shot without changing the turrets could I still use the bdc? Does everyone zero at 100 and just crank the turret up to the yardage they are shooting? I'm new with this stuff, so advice is needed. By the way, I have a 18A antelope tag this year and a Utah mule deer tag so this gun is going to get broke in fast!

What unit is your tag in? I might have the same one but rifle. We should compare notes later on if it is. 18A?

I'm selling this for my dad who upgraded to Swarovski . It has a few scratches where the scope rings go on the scope but otherwise in perfect condition. Pretty dang good scope and comparable to Bushnell 3200 and Nikon Buckmaster. Pictures of actual scope coming soon. Asking 160 OBO. stats: http://www.swfa.com/pc-8470-380-swift-6-18...ifle-scope.aspx

This is the type of bull I think is very hard to score. I think a lot of people will think he goes under 330. I think he's more like 350-365

WackEm's are great. I shot muzzy's for a while but each one seems to fly different. WackEm's seem to always fly where my field tips do.

18A RIFLE ANTELOPE!!!! YEEAAAHH

Delete the post!

Ernesto Are you still interested?

Sorry about being late responding here. I've been trying to get ahold of my dad to see what he wants. He's not too computer savvy. He said that price will work. Are you anywhere near the east valley? If so, he can meet you somewhere. If not than he can ship it. If you are not local he'd like to go through paypal. Would that work? whats your email address?

$140

btt

Pictures Added. Am I too high? I'm open to offers.

does 23 count as a young man? lol. That is extremely nice of you. seriously though, how does the 243 shoot? I've been married a year now, it would be fun to get my wife into shooting.

+5, I got one too!

Why?

Do you happen to have a list of the scopes?

I'm planning on picking up a 300 RUM and I need a scope. I don't have the money to go buy a Z6 Swarovski scope. I'm looking in the $200 to $300 range. I really want something with a lot of reticles, as many as I can find, so I can shoot far accurately. I Also would like to have the wind marks on the side of the reticles. I dunno 6-20 ish power? I'm willing to sacrifice quality to get reticles. If you have any suggestions, let me know. My Dad has this scope: http://www.swfa.com/pc-8473-380-swift-6-24...ifle-scope.aspx I'd really like to find the same thing but with reticles. Thanks

dang! oh well, thanks for the response.

I've shot a 300 rum a lot before, so I know for sure its the gun for me. I'm concerned about the scope holding up. Anyone know how vortex scopes do?

Does the scope have mill dot or any reticles?

Dibs on Penns Woods if money doesn't come.

Thanks for the reply, I will check those out. I only hunt elk with a bow, so that wont be much of a problem.

You lucky dog! I'm jealous.

Wow, what a dream buck! Congrats

That is one freaking CRAZY story! Crap that is cool!
