How does this look
 


My new Nikon Omega came today, so I had to take the other off and mount the Omega. It looks great and fits great one the rifle. I think it will be really close in the bore sight. Maybe tomorrow I will get a chance to find out.



I think this will really be a good asset to the rifle. The other scope will be a spare or perhaps a back up scope should I need to go hunting on a trip somewhere. Always good to have two scopes.

See now! I agree with that - in fact i tell Terry that all the time - I had her read read your comment.... she looked, stared at me, turned and walked off... did not say a word...

This Nikon Omega is clear as a bell. It really seems like a small scope for being a 40mm. I want to see just how far this Genesis can really shoot.

It does look really short... how long is it?

It probably is the only 40mil scope you have on a ML isn't it????

SL - I had two rifle that had 40mm scopes.. one was a Sighton S1-3-9x40. I managed to shake that apart and they mailed me a new one. Its still in the box. The other was a Millet Buck 3-9x40mm. I like the scope but liked the Nikon Pro Staff more, so I replaced it and then never put it back on a rifle. I was always going to put that on a sidelock. And I just took a 40mm off the Genesis. That was a 1.5-6x40mm Traditions. I might throw that on the Black Diamond XR.

WVM - you really need to get out there and shoot that rifle. :D

:D Women often do that when faced with an obvious truth that they wish were not so. :D:D

Nice looking set-up Cayugad. By the way, I see in the background of your picture that you keep funnel spouts on your powder canisters. I never was comfortable doing that - figuring it was not as tight a seal (for humidity) as the screw cap. Maybe I've been worrying about a non-issue.
