I own one of these in 22-250. I topped it with a 3-9 handgun scope and it is a freaking tack driver and an awesome HAM gun.

Brian can take the 22-250. He's local, and it might be a while until I can get up there.

Misread the 222, so never mind on that. Will take the 22-250 if you're really in no hurry. Not sure when I will make it up that way again.

I will take the 222 brass. Are you saying $0.50 per piece on the 22-250, or total?

Interested...PM sent

bump...potential sale didn't come together...still available...would trade straight across for a new box of 100gr .257 ttsx

I have a full box of 50 Barnes TTSX .277 in 130gr. I opened it to measure where the ogive hits the lands on my rifle, but ended up going with the LRX instead. I'd like to get $̶3̶0̶ $25, which will save you about $̶5̶ $10 from what you would pay at Sportsmans when you factor in the tax.

High school is not hard. Unless a kid has a serious learning disability, anyone with a pulse can pull at least a "C" average simply by showing up every day and turning in all assignments. Absent a learning disability, any grade less than that is the result of laziness and/or apathy; neither of which will serve a kid well after high school. I say stick to the guns and take away the privilege. As for my kids, if we see a "B" of any sort on any report card, they're not going to like the consequences.

Should be soon. No point in telling people to update their cards if they just plan to sit on them for another couple weeks...it would just mean that more cards could possibly expire or be cancelled during the lag.

PM sent on the gun claw.

Sorry, have been off line. I'm in Gilbert. a sale may be in the works. Will know more to tomorrow

I'm ready to pull the trigger on a 6.5-20 VX-3 scope, but I'm going back and forth between the 40mm and 50mm objective. Everything I have read says that the 40 vs 50 really only makes a difference in the first and last 20 minutes of shooting light. Assuming that is true (and I am open to opinions on that), I would like to know, how many of you have killed coues in that first and last 20 minutes of light? Personally, all of the coues I have been a part of have come at least an hour after first light (takes some time to glass them and get into position) and more than a half hour before dark (I don't think I would take a long shot at a coues right at dark anyways). What about the rest of you, what percentage of your coues harvests have come at very first or very last light? I would just say to heck with it and go with the 50mm but for a few issues. First, the 50mm is nearly half a pound heavier and has to sit higher up on the rifle. I like to have my scopes on the lower side. Second, the 50mm also only comes with target turrets. I would have them changed out to the CDS system, but they would still sit up really high, and the windage turret would sit out a ways. I have never had target turrets, so I wonder if it would be a problem with all that extra material hanging out. When it comes down to it, is it worth the weight and less than ideal fit for an extra 20 minutes...which in a best case scenario means that I'm trying to recover a deer cross canyon in the dark? Thoughts?

SOLD For sale, Vortex Viper 4-12x40 scope with duplex reticle. Has side parallax focus knob. Glass is clean and clear. Small scuff on the elevation cap. Has been mounted on a rifle, but no visible mounting marks. Comes with scope cover and Weaver-style rings. I'll give you the bases too if you can use Model 70 style bases. I recently upgraded and don't have any rifles in need of glass. I have the original box and paperwork, not that you need it with the Vortex warranty. Asking $275 firm.

On second thought, I'll sell them for $25. $10 of savings is more in line with the effort to make a private sale.

I am 5'11" and 205. I assume that's close enough. Where are you located?

Was it a clarity issue at 20 power, or you just didn't like zooming that close?

I know exactly where you hunt pigs in 23 (because I have seen your pics and your truck out there). That area holds mule deer year round.

You have my permission to go out and review them before next Monday. I have strongly considered saving the cash and trying the Vortex, but again, I worry about clarity at high magnification.

How is the clarity on targets at 500-600 yards when you have it cranked up to 20?
