Dakotasin;
You know, MRM's right. All you have to do is go & read tj3006's thread on the experience he had with the old Leupold scope. Keep that nasty old thing unshot for 60 years or so, & Ruger'll buy it back from you. Or trade you for the new MKIV commerative Space Ranger's blaster in 2065. No recoil with one-a those ya know.

hahahaha!!! i got the scope today (nikon 2x20), and i shot the thing today. what a rush!!! i can easily see myself spending way too much time and money on this one combination! wow, talk about fun! look for a full range report when i get some time.
also, since we were in the big city (sioux falls), i did not want to let the gun out of my sight for fear that somebody would mistake it for their own... so, guess what my ccw was today??? yep... a scoped ruger srh in 480 ruger w/ a 7.5" barrel... lol what a day!
