    The Weaver Grand Slam 2-8x36 is the ducks nuts for this sort of thing I reckon. I picked one up second hand for $200 recently (thats the only way you'll get one as they are not longer made)

    Agree with what you’re saying but many affluent overseas hunters may not have the skill sets, fitness, or motivation to hunt in our remotest regions. Some of them just want a canned hunting package:...
