Shato, I was going to get back with you, yourguidence helped alot I called Atchesons and am in the process of booking through them. It is in Southern BC the Goats I think get up around 10 1/2" but I wanted the opportunity at a second animal. The country seems beautiful and there wasn't a float plane which I would have rather used that cash elseware. Still it is a 10 day hunt

So you use a 2.5 x 8 for 300 yard shots? I was under the impression I would need it. Ihave used a VXIII 3 x 9 on my 30-06 for years but we just don't get the long shots here in the east.

I am having a muzzle brake installed on the rifle this weekend for $200 The gun smith put one on my buddies and it reduced recoil a bunch. altough it is still load
