RE: scout rifles..
Styer Scoutsare too cheap for me.....huh?.... LOL i only wish that was the case!!! [8D]Styers are the bomb...but like you said, very $$$$. Cant see parting with that kind of cash for a toy in the near future. Ive got my Ruger Frontier, and if you put it on the other side ofa dim litroom &squint your eyes, it kinda looks like a Styer ........I guess its just what you like, whether its a a Daisy .177 air rifle or a 50 cal. BMG....they all can kill, and the real issue is how comfortable and how well you shoot what you have. By the way, my Daisy is dead on at 25 yrds HAAAA!! Ill try this pic thing again, thanks for the tips.

I have shot two of them. I do not like them. I found them to be awkward to carry and shoot. LER scopes by their nature are more difficult to see through. I had a hard time with the scope. With a regular rifle scope I never have a hard time. I have the same problem with a pistol-so I use a 1X illuminated pistol scope, that way eye relief is not critical. Tom.

This takes practice...and since its kind of a"new" concept to most, kind of aforeign idea...it hasnt been used much. For those willing to practice with it, i think opinions would change some. I have never used one setup like this other than my AK47 which is my close quarters weapon. I have always used the traditional setup... i will admit, it was a bit odd to me at 1st too...but after a bit, its become so fast and natural, i dont think ill pick up my other rifles anytime soon unless im hunting open area's at a distance. It has its place if you are comfortable with it. Not trying to change ya guys, just trying to explain my new point of view, coming from a guy who used to think the same
