I may have mentioned that I am keeping a friend’s firearms while he is out of the country, with his explicit wish that I shoot them<\/i>. One of them is a Remington 700 in .308 that has an absolutely terrible 4x scope on it. My friend will be gone until sometime in 2015, so I’m thinking about replacing the glass with something a little better.<\/p>\n

The big-box sports store near my house has this Weaver Kaspa 4-16X44SF Ballistic-X Scope<\/a>\"\" on display, and I kind of like it:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s got side-focus and a range-finding\/bullet drop compensating reticle (which I can’t find much information on). The windage and elevation are finger-adjustable once you remove the caps, making it functionally like this one<\/a>\"\", but less “I bought this because it looks all tactical and stuff.”<\/p>\n

Anybody got one? Should I run far, far away? The display model in-store is clear and easy to use, but will it hold up to .308? Save my money and get a “real” scope<\/a>\"\" later?<\/p>\n

My priority this year is optics for the rifles I have, and this one is inexpensive enough that I’m tempted to go ahead and get it for the loaned one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
