All this talk about the Excals, I may get one next year. I just got a Horton RT 175. But next year I will probably have some more money. Then I can upgrade to the excal and get the better scope!!!! But I am happy with the Horton. The sound of a little better accuracy and easy home maintenance sounds good! I'll see how I do this season. It's my first CB and I know it's just fine. But I do like what I hear about the Xcals.
