Again to each their own. People think it's silly when they see a 2000 car with a 10k sound system. I mean that's the general consensus.
With Scopes apparently all logic goes out the window. Top of the line scope isn't going to make the rifle shoot any better. I will stand by that statement.
I will also stand by the statement that for a muzzleloader realistically probably will never be used as much as a centerfire or rimfire. Therefore for my purposes will be completely asinine to spend ridiculous amounts of money.
The wolf will not shoot any better. I also stand by the statement that if the scope offers a good Clearview continue to hit the same point of impact what's some point of durability then it's just as damn good in form and function as something 100 bucks or more could do.
You want to argue snap-on vs. Timex go head. I think we all have a lot to leaarn. I keep continue making analogies until my face is blue but I don't think we get anywhere. Sure I would love to have snap-on tools but realistically if you don't work on cars why would you need a Snap-On.
Some of you might put a $1,000 scope on a $2,000 rifle or something that you use once a year. To that I say must be nice having excess money. For the rest of us or logical and pragmatic I doubt we'll be doing that.
Sometimes you make do with what you have and what you have works really well. I doubt anybody out there actually owns an ohhunt given the level of scope snobry. With that being said how can you even begin to judge the quality of something that you've never even seen. Sure you can make generalized statements like Chinese Scopes are s*** but we know for a fact that's not true. To blow your mind even further how many glass manufacturers do you think there really are in the world? I think a lot of them might be using the same manufacturers and repackaging scopes. You think that USA model scope used USA glass. It's a crazy world out there were a lot of people believe a lot of crazy things innit?
Variable power Scopes and oh wow you got the high power. Variable power is just that variable 3 by 7 scope and a 4 by 16 scope have something in common they could both magnify 4 to 7 power only in general the three by 7 we'll have a 30 mm Bell or smaller and the 4 by 4 16 will have a 44 mm Bell or larger. I own six scopes. And they are in the larger magnification range but they do come down too. Down to 3 magnification. And to be honest most of the time I set the zoom and don't even mess with it. I don't know very many people that are out there constantly messing with their zoom on their scopes.
Unfortunately I hear a lot of you should have bought this and that's not going to work and I'm not sure I understand since no one has really tested my setup in particular. Lot of preconceived notions going on there.
