    I am not Mil or LE.... So, do you feel Leupold is maybe not as good as some of the competiotion? This is purely opinion based...I am not holding you to anything or quoting you anywhere as slander....So, please, don't feel I am trying to get you to say anything wrong.. Thanks for the help, Dave

    Well, the pricing on the Leupold is at $2799 MSRP for the Mark 5HD. Mile High in CO. said he could do 15% on one. now, that's $2400 roughly. Include a 20MOA Spuhr mount at $400....we are back at $2800.... So, I'm as thoroughly confused and undecided as ever. :) I have no place near me to look...

    Rifle Scopes Scope for a Tikka T3x CTR around $2000.00?

    Well, that's just it. I don't have an opinion on that. I have not done enough shooting to form a good opinion on it. My you should be long-range targets from a fixed position and coyote hunting, likely off of bipod or shooting sticks and maybe a prairie dog shoot or two if i get out west...

    First post here. Thanks in advance for help. Just got a Tikka t3x ctr in 6.5 creed. Now optics are the big question. Have about $2000 to spend. The options are dizzying. My use is as follows. I have a LRP 1 rifle class in June. We will be learning to shoot to 1200 yards...farthest for this...
