So when did POF start making a 338 lapua? Got any pics?
Just out of curiouity what "training" scope are you saying is $1800?
A scope you can get would be a Bushnell 3200 10x mildot. You can find them new for $200ish or you can spend a little more and go with a swfa super sniper

Re: Need optic's
If ranging isnt an issue I would go with a nightforce compact with the new velocity ballistic reticle. US Optics rocks if you can stand the wait. Burris Xtreme Tactical Scope 1.5X-6X-40mm has a red dot plus a 7.62 ballistic reticle.

Re: Need optic's
Super Snipers are a great option in that price range, check out the Falcon Menace scope too.
You are a brave man entrusting the contracted movers. I hope you are waiting on them to get you your camera and not your rifle.
We lost a bunch of stuff with them once. It seemed like it was all good stuff too, like they pick and choose what stuff made it and what didn't make it.
My wife was in an appartment for three months (while I was in a shit hole on the other side of the world) with out any stuff. When our household items did finally show up, it was pretty picked through.

Re: Need optic's
are you still in or have you gotten out if you are still in what post are you at if you want to keep opsec email me at [email protected] I got hooked on the horas reticle now that we are making the big switch to training everyone on it to be honest it is so much better than the old mill dot after you get over the shock of it being so busy it has so many advantages over all other mesuring systems and one of the better ones that they have is a great picture and only cost around 800 and some change

Re: Need optic's
The Horus scopes arent bad,I guess. The reticles are good if you can get a hang of them and they dont give you a head ache,but just like Horus themselves(from what I here)and I will tell you if you want their reticle in a nice well built scope with good glass get it in one that is well built with good glass,not theirs;i.e. S&B,PH,USO etc. I bought a Horus scope just to see if I liked the reticle and was quite less than impressed with the build quality,glass,etc. It had some of the worse chromatic aberration that I have ever seen.Anyways personally I think for $800 you can have a lot better scope.
