is any one useing a vx3 4.4x14 40or50 or lr with a kenton ind turret. if so i was wondering how well you like it or would you set up your rig differently know what you know now. also witch type of turret do you have.

it should be in thursday or friday so i should be able to sight it in on saturday or sunday.

mark 4 LR/T 4.5-14x40 w/tall target knobs. on order.

from what i can find on the web and talking to the rep at leupold the vx3 4.4x14x40LR has the side focus and a 30mm tube. the mk4 LR/T 4.4x14x40 has side focus 30mm tube and tall turrets and comes standard with the aluma flip up covers witch offsets the cost between the two as i would not have a scope with out covers. im going to call leupold again tomorrow to ask about the diferance in the glass and the warranty. the vx3 is covered under the gold ring warranty but the website says the mk4 "vary depending on use " i would like a little more info about that. but brunos shooting supplys has incredible prices on all leupolds. i call them today the lady on the phone about died when i asked her if they were stolen with prices so low.

i think im torn now between the Mark 4 LR/T 4.5X14X40 with target knobs and the vx3 4.4x14x40 LR. catclaw pointed me toward a local retailer were the mk4 is $80 more but it comes standard with the flip up scope covers. the two are within .9oz of eachother. from looking at the web site the vx3 is optically superior as it has the "index matched lens" but the vx3 with the '' extended twilght lens takes the index matched lens one step further" so confused ill have to call leupold.

thanks for the info matt. i too will be shooting off the claw. i have been looking around i dont think i can get a new vx3 with the tall target knobs with out sending it in. i may have to go with the coin slot type. either way ill be calling in my order to kenton. i have too many questions for them for an internet order.

for the record i would take him at legal sun rise opening morning. bone him out and help my tag mates fill there tags. ruger m77 mkII 300wm 180g nosler accubond over 75g h1000, burris fulveiw II 3-9x40 bplex. i hold the 4th hash center mass and let the wind walk the bullet about 10in left through the lungs. then i would do a back flip

i got out yesterday. she sighted it just fine. 3 extra clovers just to make sure.

its really my problem more than it is the scopes. i went out this mourning to teach a 9y old how to shoot a scoped rifle. after 30 min of instruction his first group was about 1 1/2in. he got a little better as time when on. he was shooting a 243 with nikon 3-9 prostaff off of my gun claw. he shot about 40 round and did great. we then switch to pistols because he sayed "this is too easy" my dumb a$$ left the gun sitting on the claw on the tripod. we where 20y away when the mother of all dust devils came through and knocked the whole dam thing over, scope first into the ground. right before we left i wanted to check my zero other wise i would be worried until the next time i shot it. i have hotroded the rifle my self and its a 1/2moa rain or shine. i took 3 shoots at 100y, walked up to check the target. target is was clean. i was not really that surprised, i have been quite happy with this scope but i seen it hit and it hit the ground hard. i did not want to fix it on the spot so at least now i know i need to remount the scope zero out the adjustments and start over. but coyote season is still months away so i got the time but i have a feeling ill be back out shooting monday or tuseday if i can find the time so make up some more ammo.

i guess it was a good thing i did not have a tag cause he would have got it for sure!!

i found this fellow today. he looks big to me. but is he big. i would shoot him but i have no desire to hunt antelope, but i do enjoy watching them.

looks photo shopped

as side from every thing all ready stated. 1 California 2 term limits the real shame is that in the district he represents( he represents them well) he will be reelected. when you have no term limit and an overwhelming blind liberal base you can say what ever you want at a town hall meeting knowing that your supports are clearly not in attendance and outnumber the critics 10-1. he has held that seat since 1973. this is for the people, by the people. unfortunate the people are addicted to the doll. but then again what do i know im just a mean spirited misguided Arizona racist. and i quote " as high and long as it take." the link posted is just a clip for what its worth its worth watching the full version as well how long has it been since the minute men were on the border? and what was the body count when the were??

i seen a ton while i was working today. those were the only ones i took any pics of. i stopped and looked at a group of 3 buck but i was in a hurry when i came back by there 20 min later they were gone. they sure are spooky. those are the best pics i have of him.

dam dam

i have this one i like it alot and it did not brake the bank. the specs are bs i get good readings on hillsides and trees out to 900 consistently. i mine cost a bit more when i got it.

call it what every you want but i called azf&g yesterday just in case, i ve been playing deerhunter 2005 a few hours a night, and 8hr a week reloading and shooting. and still i feel like im going nuts. i just want to get up in the hills with or without a tag and not melt.

if your in phx randals at 51st and olive has a nice selection with in your budget.

i seen a newer red dodge ram on loop 101 and thunderbird at 540pm. i thinks it was a 4door.

nice shot placement aswell

i dont think you'll find a better deal than this. 300 wsm

right now on back page there are a few good deals in those cals. 7mm 300wm there is also a 270 for 315

so what, we just gave back part of mexico that we "stole" any way. i wonder how much bigger that highlighted yellow area is going to get before arizonans will stop being call racists? deerhunter we pay taxes so politicians (R&D) can give the cash to their friends to either push there agenda or to line up a job when they get thrown out of office. excuse me i mean "The public good"

i found a herd of antelope today. i counted about 67. 10 bucks, it seemed like 1/2 were fawns so i think that is a good thing. but i know more about rocket science than i do about antelope. these pic were digiscoped with high wind from 600-700yards. there were many mommas nursing multiple fawns. i watched them for about an hour. at first i was about 100y but while i was setting up my tripod they spooked.

ask and you shall receive.
