Re: Savage MKII TR or BTVS???
I have the MK11 BTVS and the rifle shoots excellent and is a lot of fun too. The thumbhole is really comfortable for me but I have no experience with the TR to comment on it.
Re: High Quality Leather Carry Rigs
Milt Sparks make really good quality IWB stuff, but unfortunately they usually do take 6-8 months in my experience.
Re: Am I crazy for considering Leupold over NightForce
I have owned the Mk4 you listed and currently own a NF 5.5-22x50 and can definately agree that the turrets on the Mk4 were a pain. Other than that I really LIKED the Mk4, but I LOVE my NF. I wish I would have just bought the NF to begin with.
