In the, almost 30, years that I have been hunting i've never owned a weapon with a scope. My father taught me to shoot with iron sights since that's how he shot/hunted. As I'm knocking on 40 and my eyesight is beginning to change I decided to try a scope.
A very generous TBH member (thanks again Alan) gave me an old scope to play with and see if I liked it. So, I stopped by the gun shop on 67 just on the west side of Alvaredo yesterday to get it mounted and bore sighted. After an hour or so with them trying and trying we just couldn't get the scope to adjust correctly so I bit the bullet and purchased a Barska 3x9x50...
I know its not a $500 scope but i'm excited!!!! They mounted it and got it zero'd in within minutes. I got it home and had to make almost no adjustments at 100 and 150 yards. Great guys at that gun shop, they have great prices and TONS OF AMMO!!!!
