Thats a good idea on buying scope and rings and not having to pay for the FFL. ill be making the calls tomorrow and see what kind of a deal i can set up.

From what i can see the seller is an A+ with over 4,000 transactions (this one is 95509451) so it looks like he is pretty legit.

Have been looking at putting a Nikon Monarch 4-16x42 on it. Like i said i have a 270 tikka coming that i was going to put the 5-20x44 on it so im not sure what scope gun combo i am going to match up. Looking at the balistics i think the 300 might be the gun for the more powerful scope, and make that my long range rifle.

By the end of the week if everything goes right i could have two new guns to add to the safe,so exciting.
