Nikon ProStaff Shotgun/ Rifle Scope
« on: November 11, 2007, 11:05:48 AM »
I'm considering purchasing a Nikon Pro Staff Shotgun/ Rifle Scope (2 x7-32mm).  The plan is to mount it on a Rem 700 SPS 7mm-08.  Does anyone use this model scope on their center fire rifle?  The price is good, plus I already own a few Nikon scopes.  I'm looking for opinions and recommendation's anyone may have.  Thanks in advance.

I've got two of em, I liked the one on the .500S&W Handirifle so much that I bought another, it works very well with stout loads, holds zero with 700gr loads @ 1400+fps, 350gr @ 2150fps,  I can see a slight parallax error at 100yds, but not enough to worry about for big game hunting IMO. ;)

Here, here :) I am glad to hear another hunter mounting a good, sensible scope on their deer rifle. Thumbs up! ;D ;D ;D

I greatly appreciate the advice.  I picked-up one today at the Bass Pro Shop.  Looks great, I'm sure it will shoot great also.
