I just set up my new gun and scope combo a month ago. I got the Xbolt Hells canyon speed in 300wsm. Since I was putting on a Leupold i went with leupold mounts and rings. My scope was a 50mm so I had to use the high rings as the mediums were just a shade too short. The setup fits me...

Right now i am looking for the pros cons from ppl that have been in the units 7, 19, 23, 45, 49, 120 that have been in those units lately. Or other units that I may not be considering.

get the 10x50. you will want it during first light and last light spotting game. keep an eye out on camofire.com they run some good glass on there daily

Looking to sell/trade my brand new in the box Zeiss Conquest HD5 riflescope. it is a Z-plex in 5x25x50. Bought a new spotting scope and looking to cover the expense or else I would keep it. I paid $1300 for it new. I will entertain offers or trade for it. PM me for pictures thanks
