IF they are offering packages with nikon scopes,that's great and would be the exception-even the cheapest nikon line of prostaff,of which I have several mounted on somel rifles/muzzleloaders. If they didn't perform,I wouldn't even consider using them. I've had to change scopes out over the years by the hundreds,usually customers upgrading from cheap scopes that fogged up or wouldn't hold zero/track/adjust. The thing is,I'm almost positive ****s sporting goods must mount them as package or have special quanity option since I've NEVER seen this package in any of the wholesaler distributers I deal with. Perhaps they do,and if so,great-it's a giant step forward for package deals. What I'm talking about is the usual package deals with remington model 710/770 or savage usually at discount places like wal-mart and such. Another reason I would hesitate to buy a package deal-regardless of what scope it contained,is bases/rings are usually aluminum and of iffy quality,and if they ARE steel,you can bet your bottom dollar they wasn't lapped in and normal pains taken for optimum mounting. Lapping steel rings in before mounting scope is just common sense and prevents the scope body from being damaged which COULD cause later scope failure. It just makes sense to have a scope mounted by someone that don't have to meet numbers by "throwing" several dozen scopes on packages per day. In fact,a few scope companies consider ring marks (indentations) to be neglect/abuse. That's food for thought.
