i am so impressed with the .25-06. just awesome how it performed. the damage that it did in the hams was astonishing. unfortunately the hams will be ground up, but that happens sometimes. i have a ruger and my buddy just got a brand new rem mod 700 and he had it up there and we sighted it in while there. well my scope does not do so well in low light situations, so for the evening hunt he told me to take his. the ziess (sp?) is so nice in low light. i had only fired the gun once after it was sighted in and loved it. nice recoil pad on it, really softened the blow. that gun shoots so flat, im gonna start stretchin out the distances at the range and really get it dialed in at long range. i think im gonna save up some $$$ and purchase a quality scope cause the difference is night and day, literally.
glass is not something to go cheap with. you get what you pay for when it comes to scopes.
i know, the scope on my gun came on my gun when i bought it. i dont go cheap on tools either, i just have a hard time sometimes letting go of a few hundred bucks on a scope when a few hundred bucks is enough to get another gun or close to it. but now i know that my next major purchase will be a high quality scope. my redfield does ok in low light, but niether as good as the zeiss.
