This is just my opinion mind you... I would have just got the rifle and not the scope. I would have spent a little more for a better quality scope for such an outstanding rifle.....
Actually I have read some good things and bad things about Pine Ridge Scopes. They are either junk, or they work fine...
By the way, that's some wife you got. She sure knows how to buy presents. Maybe you could get he a leupold scope as her gift and she could let you borrow it....
