New Moose Rifle ... New & Improved w/ VX lll

I think we would probably also agree that a guy should buy the best optics he can afford

thats where a 'bargain' premium scope like an Elite 3200 is a good pick for alot of guys

Well the law of diminishing returns applies here. If you want the ultimate you won't always see a huge return on your investment. However, if you have the cash and need, why not....

We agree on that as well.I know of a least 6 elite 3000 and 3200 scopes in use and the owners are all very pleased.They are mounted on mostly 7mmremmags with one on a 338win mag.
Most of the people that I know with larger optics budgets are buying the ziess conquest.

Hehehe. Agreed. That's what was on my Tikka until I bought that VX-III off you. ;)
My other "moose" gun is a pre-81 BLR in .358 Win that I'll be putting an older Vari-X II 2-7 on. ;)
 
Alright, is THIS better? :rolleyes:

Tikka T3 .300WM, leupold VX lll 2.5-8x36mm, weaver bases and rings, limbsaver pad, 7.5 lbs :eek:

Burris Signature rings were too high, and they don't come in Low.

Great deals in EE :p

You went out and bought a new scope because people around here said to do so? What happened about your statement, your after value and thats why you choose a 3200?

Well it is a nice rifle and goodluck with it.
 
Be careful with the Weaver rings as they WILL crimp your nice new scope if overtightened.

I've done it to a brand new Leupold myself :mad:

How do you know if it's too tight? I have weaver rings on both my scopes and they are tight but how do I make sure, it's not too tight? Are leupold rings better?

Burris Z (weaver style) are great rings. I've never had them pinch a scope.

Nice improvement! Cant go wrong with that scope :D

I agree on those bases and rings though, lots of better choices than weaver.

Have fun shootin swamp donkeys this fall :D
 
That scope is a great improvement.Now you have a great combination for moose hunting.The only way to make it better would have been to mount a 3x9x40 conquest.
