hylander,
I bought the EXACT same scope from the optic zone about a year or so ago. What a great scope!!! I just love it too. I have it mounted on my Tikka Laminated Stainless in .25-06.
You're right about the price and service. The optic zone has some of the absolute lowest prices you can find anywhere and, just as importantly, his service is virtually second to none! Jon responds to all my emails and calls in little time, and ships everything faster than a speeding bullet! Heck, I guess he IS Superman - Superman of Optics!
BTW Jon, if you're reading this post, I'm considering getting another scope, so I'll be talking to you soon!
