I've got a new .338 Ultra Mag and now I'm in the hunt for the perfect scope. Price isn't an issue, just need an all-around scope that can handle her recoil. Your suggestions and experience are greatly appreciated.

If price is no object then go with the swarwarski scopes. They have one with a built in laser rangefinder for around $5000.....did I say five thousand dollars????? Yeah I guess I did.

Leupold, you pick the power range according to what you hunt. Buy 3 more rifles with the $5000.
Good Luck and Good Hunting,
