bubbasks Posted May 9, 2016 Report Posted May 9, 2016 Used the Mil on several occasions and planned on buying one. But from what I hear, newer ones are having tracking issues m5 and t5

Cali_Ed Posted June 9, 2016 Author Report Posted June 9, 2016 What kind of things should I look for when I get my hands on one?
mrmackc Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 I found out a long time ago I don't want to have a situation where I need to shoot something as small as a squirrel or as large as a Mall Cop at 1200 meters to stay alive, so back in the day my scopes were all 4x fixed power Weavers, Redfield, or Bushnell, I even have a 4 power Mauser marked scope,BTY it still holds a good zero on the old customized 03A3. I bought them because of price or durability now my eyes like the 1x to 5x for the peashooters or the 5x by 18X for the .308 and 3006. I never thought it a good idea to put a $1000 piece of glass on a $400 rifle, just don't make sense to this old brown shoe jarhead.

I agree with that statement. But I am a cheap basturd ! I still think it OK to put a $150 to $199 scope on a $2000 rifle ! Minute of Man is good enough !
