and the nikon was a good scope for you? i was going to go with a leupold but i really like the BDC that nikon has. im not use to far shots and i think it could help a lot.. ive never had an expensive scope so i kinda wanna buy the best for the money. thanks..
also what finsh would you recommend on the x bolt? which did you have and did it hold up good to normal use?
I had the "Hunter" model, which consisted of a matte blue finish and a satin wood stock. I personally do not like the feel of the X-Bolt's with the synthetic stock. The Nikon was a very good scope, its just I prefer the Leupold and Zeiss scopes I have.
If you want a 7mm, I'd go with the 7mm Rem Mag as the ammunition will be as easy to locate as a 30-06 or 270 Winchester.
