    I’d put what ever I could beg , borrow or steal on it to start using it , but then I’d start saving up to “ buy once cry once” .
    A quality rifle deserves quality optics , in fact every rifle deserves quality optics

    I'll second that.
    Ive got a vx6 on a howa 223
    I should really take it off and put a smaller lighter 3-9 or something on there but I just cant bring myself to do it.

    I know what you mean guys .
    Given the opportunity I would well overscope it...
    I have vx6hd and vx5hd on the 338 and 308 but had to sell everything I owned to pay for them , and I have run out of stuff to sell...and almost melted the c/card buying the 22 ....lol
    And if the old adage spend twice as much on the optics than the rifle then I guess it will have to be a schmidt and Bender or nothing.....
