thought maybe some of you gun nuts could point me in the direction of a new scope. i need a new scope for my 30.06. right now i cannot see a full view of the scope without getting 1" from the scope and getting myself laid open. I have not killed a deer with it in 7-8 years and not even shot it in 5-6 years.
yes my eyes have gotten worse and it was not the best scope money could buy at the time. this thing is 15 years old as i bought the gun and scope new when i was 12.
i looked at a leopold at cabela's with a lot of eye relief. appx 6". but it was a single power and only 2.5x with a small lense. i would like to find something with an adjustable magnification and larger lense with a good bit of eye relief. if it is only a single optic then 3-4x is preferred.
i do not need the best money can buy as it will be hunted with and typically in the woods not an open field. but i need something that fits my needs. the leopold i looked at was $200.
anyone know of something like this? or a better place to look? Cabela's was too busy to even get close to the scopes/guns. we plan to take some of our .06's and muzzeloaders, and 30-30 to the range and site them in the 2nd or 9th.
