AR scope on a 30-06 Bolt action
Hey everyone, Im new to the hunting world and had a question about my set up. I bought a rifle a few years ago to go hunting. I went to a big chain outdoor store about a year ago and the employee sold me on a Nikon coyote special scope (3X9X40). It says its an AR .233 scope. The guy at the store knew it was for 30-06 and mounted it for me. Im worried that using the scope on a bigger rifle might be bad for it (recoil wise). Do you guys have any experience or knowledge on this? Like I said I'm new to this and don't have a lot of knowledge on this topic. I have a savage axis 30-06 with leopold mounts and rings if that helps any. Thanks all!
