    Apparently you have to contribute to the forum for a while before that's possible to get on the Buy/Sell/Trade.
    Not sure how many posts are required though.
    Until that point, there is always TradeMe.
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.

    It's more a quality thing than quantity. What kind of scope are you after?

    Brought a brno 22 hornet and it came with a vx2 3-9, I've used a vx1 before and not too impressed but this thing is damn good, certainly tracks well. For a couple hundred second hand worth the dough. At present it's on my 223 mod 70, at the old stage of life now and 3-12 is better on the eyes.

    Recently bought 2 vx3s off of trademe. Both with unclaimed cds. Another one was sold here recently. Beautiful scopes with the only negative being that they are not vx5s...

    Used Leupolds are remarkably stable in price.

    For both I had the serial# checked with leupold (they answer to emails very quickly and also assured me that the scopes were covered by the lifetime warranty, no questions asked).

    one thing i would keep in mind though that you definately want the zerostop one for bushwhacking.
