    Thank is the same scope I had on my Sav M40. Its not a bad scope at all but I ended up selling it because the coating on my eye glasses conflicted with the scope lens coating and cause issues for me. I was going to keep it as a spare but I got $100 for it used over eBay and the guy is tickled pink with it. I have a Barska 6-24x42AO to go on my 96901 but currently I have a CenterPoint 4-16x40AO/IR on it. Its workable. I have a guy who wants to buy the who thing, rifle, scope, 3 mags & 1000 rounds of ammo. It seems crazy he will pay what I told him. It has me concerned. I already have the FFL info though.

    Picked up a Redfield 3x9 scope for the Bmag and got it mounted today. Weaver medium rings worked out just right. Scope sits low to the barrel and bolt just clears on the eye side. Took only 4 shots to get it hitting close to center at 25 yards. Worked my
    way out 25 yards at a time to 100 yards. My Son has a Savage .22 bolt action with a Sweet 22 scope on it and it is a tack driver even at 100 yards with ammo from the 1980's. We traded of shooting rifles at 100 yards and am really pleased with the new Bmag. The new round is very lethal on 20 oz. soda bottles filled with water!!!! Blows the neck off and rips the bottles to ribbons. Also blows melons up pretty good too. I had no feeding or ejecting problems shooting 85 rounds. Barrel gets a little warm. I haven't had this much fun shooting in years.

    On a side note - I am really disappointed folks are unable to find ammunition for their new rifles. Just not right. I don't look at firearms ownership as some privilege it is one of our rights that many of us served to preserve.

    Hi, glad to see these rifles getting to market.
    I have a lot of scopes, but the latest has really impressed me it's a Redfield Revenge 6-18 AO. Great match to the rifle and better yet the glass is fantastic.
    Don't buy a Weaver Kaspa. UGGGHH!

    Hi. Yes, this model does have the 'rangefinder'. I have only used the scope once and that was to zero it. My buddy at work (who is a Redfield fan) looked through it and loved it. The rangefinder was not the reason I bought this model., it was the 6-18 power. I wish it had 2 changes:
    1. side focus. I have replaced most AO scopes with SF models
    2. exposed turrets
    The Revolution scopes are 'touted' to have better glass but do not come in the power range I wanted.

    I just received a Mueller 8-32X44mm (30 mm tube). I have other Muellers and enjoy them VERY much. I'll post my 'review' in the optics section, once I get the new, lower rings I ordered.....

    Well when you get to using the range finder let me know how you like it. I don't like normal range finding reticles because for me they are "to busy".

    I have one SF scope and I am not totally sold on the feature for the extra money BUT I do like some of the other scopes that just happen to have them. The one thing I do like about the SF scopes is I can use slightly lower rings but when it comes to the 50mm objective scopes I have been getting now and then whether or not it is an AO scope or not really doesn't matter because they are tall rings regardless. My most recent scope is a Barska Excavator 8-32x50 with illuminated target dot. I have said before how I like Barska scopes and for the money it is had to get a scope as clear dollar for dollar in other brands. What I have noticed is at a certain price point Barska takes a jump and the Excavator line is one of those. I also handled a used swat sniper series of theirs, a 10-40x44SF...WOW is all I can say. I am tempted to buy one but they are priced right in line with the Mueller you bought. that is the Evacuator series, right? Let us know how you like it.
