    Er...


    Now to decide what to put it on! I've wanted to scope the Mini -14, but is it worthy of this?!?

    Oh, this was my birthday present!!

    And Old Bay goes on EVERYTHING!!

    I don't have a bolt gun aside from my Enfield. I don't actually own a lot of centerfire rifles. I have an Eotech on my AR. I like that setup. I do have a lower I want to build into something fairly accurate that would maybe be worthy, but that is still a ways off. I'm pretty happy with the set ups on my rimfires. Maybe it will go on the mini temporarily. It is a newer one that is more accurate.

    I won't make a value judgements about a Mini being * worthy * , but it isn't particularly Suitable .

    How about your Rimfires ? Any candidates there for a temporary platform for your present ?

    All of my rimfires that I want to have scopes, have them. And I'm pretty happy with them. Eventually I'd like to upgrade the one 10/22 to a higher power, but it's stainless and currently has a silver vx-1 3-6. I still do a lot of off hand with it, so that set up seems to work.

    Maybe I just need a new gun to go under this :shrug:

    SHHHH!!! You guys! :o Next thing you know, I'm going to have to buy her another scope...or another rifle :eek:! She liked the Redfield 4-12 I have on my American...and the Leupold was about the same price. I think it will do fine on the Mini-14 ;):innocent0;)

    IMHO, it for a centerfire rifle worthy of that glass. It seems like hubby will maybe get the hint? (cmonnnnn hubby, you're halfway there now!)

    Looks like both a scope and a rifle to me. Hey, it's as good an excuse as any!:innocent0
