My buddy's dad just bought a huge land, lots and lots of acres. He will be starting coyote hunting in november 2014, since the land is infested with them and putting numbers down will help him for deer.
So here that time, i will have to get hunters course (i have rpal and regularly practice ipsc but never hunted) and my gear up and running.
I got my clothes purchases lined up, hunting equipment, rifle etc... Only part stalling me is optics.
I have something in mind, but will let some of you guys chime in to see if it's in line with what i had in mind.
Rifle will be rem 700 sps tactical, .223 20" threaded barrel 1:9 twist
Ammo will be my match loads used in armalite national match, 69gr sierra match bthp
Will install a stock, which is not necessary but will get me behind an A2 stock and postol grip, for familiarity, it's the MDT. TAC21
With all this in mind, what optic and mount would you personally use? Bearing in mind, 1000$ budget for optic/mount before taxes. Post your setup if revelent!
