    Unertl for 52C

    I bought a decent 52C w/std wt bbl recently, and had begun looking for a nice Unertl target scope for it when I found an ad for two Unertls - a 20x target, 3/4" tube, 1-1/4 objective & 15x target, 1" tube, 2" objective, both in excellent condition. I made an offer for both scopes, he accepted my...

    Winchester 52C Sporting rifle - price & options in 1956

    Dad was a bit of a gun nut back in the 1950s - though with five kids to keep clothed & fed, he didn't have a lot of money to spend on a fancy sporter .22. He did have a S&W 6" K-22 Masterpiece and a Winchester M61 pump .22 that he kept in his pickup truck for as long as I can recall. He also had...

    New Leupold 15x Binocs

    Just noticed a new BX-5 line of 15x56 binoculars from Leupold in a Cabela's optics flier that came a couple of weeks ago. These are priced at $1400 for the plain gray ones, a little higher for the ones having camo bodies. Anyone seen, handled, or looked through these yet? I've got a set of their...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell ET35215GZA ERS click value

    Bought a new Bushnell 3.5-21x50GZA in FDE for my 260 Imp 30* late last fall, and finally got around to shooting a box with it last evening. I put a couple of rounds into the X-ring on the reduced SR-21C to confirm my 100yd zero, then moved 1 mil right, 1 mil up, (would've gone 2 mils up, but...
