Will up-grade the scopes on some of my rifles. Will buya couple Leupold FX III 6x42 scopes to replace existingWeaver and Redfield scopes: Those scopes arenot too bad but they are not good low light scopes. Will also buy a Ziess 6x42.Should havebought quality scopes the first time.

I plan on adding another T/C Encore Pro Hunter to my collection and a Nkon Monarch 50mm mounted to that. I also have a new $800 bow ordered and will have to dump a few more hundred into it to set it up. Of course this season I will have all 3 kids hunting so I'll have an excuse to spend all kinds of extra money on huntin' gear this season! LOL!

I'll be looking at a .22,.17hmr or 22-250 for varmint hunting, possibly a .270 or 30-06 if i can talk my uncle into letting me bear hunt with him in NY, possibly a crossbow, def. a scope for my Mossy 500 Slug Gun.

Definately a press and associated equipment for the 50 BMG now seeing that I picked up the rifle and scope today.

Rammer, I dont have any pics of the rifle setup yet but did snap one of the 10 rd magazine with a Sako 375 H&H for comparison. I am going to need some serious powder to keep this thing fed.

Have already bought 3 or 4 handguns and I know there's at least one rifle and a good chance another few handguns will be bought too. Having to tame it a bit this year. Might get a coupl scopes too.

Considering the $4 a gallon gas it looks like my 'major' purchase will be spent using what i have and buying gas. I just got my licenses for elk, deer and antelope. I am heading out the door in two hours for three days of pd shooting and I got a whole bunch of year left. Gas and handloading supplies will use up all the disposable income.
