Before I got a Leupy VX1, I'd get a Sightron SII with the long range duplex. You may wish to get on the SWFA site and check out their samplelist merchandise. Save some cash and get better glass.
Nice review (but I sure could do without the background "music"). The bow looks well engineered and should be a worthy addition to your collection for hunting. Thanks.
Liking those "just because" thoughts. Maybe I'll bring the old Win 94 .32 Spl (I inherited from my Dad) up this fall. That would be fun. Now, where is that old plaid Woolwich? LOL.
I'm basically a SS Slut... and I prefer wood / blue. That said, the Sako wears a McMillan synthetic, The Dakota 97 is synthetic and the Ruger has a laminated stock!
