25 wssm and Zeiss

ricknolaninok · 10-19-2004, 08:53 PM

I am thinking about a 25 wssm with a Zeiss CONQUEST 6.5-20x50 for varmits and whitetails in New Mexico and west Oklahoma. What do you guys think?

That sounds like an awsome rig to me. I would likely drop down to a slightly lower powered scope though for deer hunting.

Sounds like a good combo. Both should serve the purpose very well.

Good scope, I would mount it on a 25-06 though. The short version won't match the long version with the heavy bullets for deer.

If you have your heart set on a high power scope, you might want to go with the Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14x44 MC. Good luck.

Long scope for a very short action but the scope is excellent...If I had to I would go with the 25-06 or 257 weatherby instead
