Topic: A new Addition to the Herd Posted: 29 February 2004 at 13:39
Last Friday, I again fell into an outhouse and came out smelling like a rose. A friend of mine is changing jobs and asked me if I wanted another scope. I have my standards you know, and asked him what he had. He said it was a Leupold target scope, and I told him sure. All I needed to seal the deal was 1000 rounds of .45 ACP. I left work early and got out what I had loaded and gave it to him, and in tern, he handed me a Leupold Premier Reticle 6.5X20 bumped to 18X40. I almost fell over, but kept my cool. Over some drinks, I felt a little guilty, and asked him if he knew what it was worth. He smiled and said, "Yes, 1000 rounds of .45 ACP" and winked. The only problem I have with it is that it only has a 1/2 minute dot, and I want a 5/8. I suppose I'll keep it.........I guess...........if I have to.........LOL.............Kingpin

BK, a month ago, I reberreled a guys rifle using the barrel that he bought and he gave me a 3 1/2X10 vari x 3. I made a scope mount with rings in it and installed it on my .300 Win Mag. Prior to that, I had a 4X Unertle on it. It went from a 3" group at 200 yds to a 1 1/2" group at the same range. Sometimes I just fall into these deals...........Kingpin

LOL Orion, I can get Premier Reticle to do it too, and I think it costs $42. They do all my Leupold work, and will do this one too, after all, it's their scope......................Kingpin
