Spark,

My eyes are not a good indicator of what is better for what. Just my playing around with the different scopes, SS, Cabela's A Guide and a Ziess 3X9 the Ziess is on the bottom of list with the SS at the top. My son puts the Ziess at the top then the SS and doesn't like the cabelas at all.

Not clicking yet. Though the SS is proving best for that. Pretty soon I'll be truing up the scope. Never was good at getting them square. No patience.

BTW, got a Ruger #1 375 H&H on the way. Traded a Win 70 Featherweight for it. Now I'll have the action and the wood for what ever I want to do with it. Figure I'll keep it the way it is for when I do the elk thing in Griz country. I remember how undergunned I felt when carrying a 222 in wolf country (only if attacked). Don't want to be in the thick stuff and get surprised without a least one shot that's big enough to do the job. When I had the 270 #1 I could get off a couple of shots pretty quick
