I shoot a browning a bolt medialian 300 win mag. took a buddy on a canadian bear hunt and set it up with a Bushnell Holorgraphich red dot. site. out to 100 yards it works awesome. I was worried about it handleing the recoil of the 300 win mag but its been on there a year now...done alot of shooting with it and it seems to be holding up great. plan on using it for elk hunting this year. early season find them in heavy timber and even a 3x9 won't back out enough

good luck and enjoy your hunt.
