Rifle and scope combos...
I've got a Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40mm sitting atop Conetrol mounts and rings on a Kleingunther K-14 .300 Win. Mag. An identical Zeiss on my Winchester M70 SuperGrade .300 Win. Mag., as well as yet another on my Colt-Sauer 7mm Rem. Mag.
Had an old Swarovski Habicht 30mm tubed 1.5-6x42mm on my English Whitworth "American Field" '98 .30-06 Spgfld., but it is presently awaiting new glass as soon as I can decide what to put on it that would do as good a job without being so freaking top-heavy. Next up may be a planned acquisition of either a Winchester M70 Featherweight Classic .270 WCF or a Remington M700 CDL in 7-08 Rem--I need a good light woods/plains/mountain rifle. Heck, if I eventually (not all at the same time--guns and other toys already have me about dead-broke right now!) got both I could put a Burris Fullfield II 3-9x40mm on one and a Nikon Monarch 3-9x40mm on the other, and that way would not have the quandry as to which scope to select.
On my Winchester M9422 XTR .22LR I have a Weaver Compact 2.5-7x, and on my Winchester M9422 .22 WMR (w/ a factory brown laminated stock and forend) I have a Nikon ProStaff 2-7x32mm shotgun scope. My PCP airguns all wear Burris airgun glass except for one still wearing a Simmons ProAir 4-12x40mmAO, although a 2.5 Nightvision scope would be trick to have (I believe Straightshooters.com has one listed among its available optics for under five bills, IIRC), as also would one of the Bushnell Legend 5-15xAO mildot scopes likewise fill a perceived need.
Other than rimfires I find myself without varminters at the present, due to some trading and such. Hope to have that situation remedied before next spring! If only there was as much spending cabbage in my checking account and wallet as there are wishes and "needs."
