More good news! Even after being dormant for a couple years, the scope is dead on, i shot 10 lightfields through it, and they were 2 inches high at 50yards, and dead on 100. Anybody recommend sabot slugs, im still experimenting with em, the lightfields were nice, i was looking at the remington core-lokt ones? any info on good sabots, im soo happy, when i first shot his gun, i didn' t feel it, i think its gas operated, almost no kick! lookout bucks..im not missin this year!! when i took it to the range, a buddy of mine cleans up shells on weekends told me that the gun was worth close to a grand if not more, i took it back to the neighbor and told her so, she looked at meand siad " i know what jim (her husband) paid for it, its yours, have it, be safe." Well at least now i can show up my buddies at the range!
