Thread: Bambi beware, this old girl is coming for you!

@257weatherby Bloody nice guns and they cost a premium when new. Bought a 308 Forester of that era brand new. Shooting mates thought I was stark raving mad. Interesting comment re your scope - I still have in a drawer somewhere the same Nickel Marburg 4x81(36 obj). It sat on my very first 22-250 long long time ago. With handloads that rifle consistently shot .5MOA for five shots. It was a Tika LSA-55, quality product just like the SAKOs of that era. The scope had the traditional fat post and I used to have eye sight good enough (no longer the case) that I could shoot my groups by using the right hand tip of the post for the aiming point. 4 power only was good enough for long shots. Now we all anguish about whether we have enough magnification with 3-9 just seen to be adequate. Enjoy your treasure.
