    Default What is your desert island scope pick and why?

    Tell me about your favorite scope. Like if you could only keep one.

    Scopes only. No red dots or the like.

    I'm starting to look into better glass and would love to hear what other people are running and what they like about it.

    Thanks,
    -Zach

    Probably take a Nightforce. Tough enough to drive nails and still function properly. Built like a tank.

    While you're correcting things, you might want to consider the proper term is "deserted island".
    Rules are written in the stone,
    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.

    Desert island scope?



    12" Newtonian reflector on an altazimuth base. Bound to have awesome dark skies on a desert island, and mine gives me awesome views even with light pollution.

    As for rifles, I don't usually use a scope on one. Red dot yes, scope no, although I do have a spotter scope to check downrange hits.

    I'm pretty impressed with the new Leupold VX-5hd. It's the best scope I own.

    Only if you're eating nasty-ass desserts that make your breath stink.
