Hope and Change

[Dean Romig]

Somehow the Lueopold scope mounted on my Ruger No.1 sustained a pretty good dent in the tube but it is still dead on target.

[Double Play]

I have a Leopold VariX 3 2.5-8 on a Remington model 700 Mountain chambered in 7-08 that I sighted 3" high at 100yds the day the gun was new about10 years ago. That gun has bee all over the US and Canada and has accounted for a lot of game and though most of our shots are inside 100 yards, every year I shoot a couple of deer with confidence at 300+ yards. As long as you are careful there is little need for resighting your rifle. Of course it’s a good excuse to go to the range for a little shooting.

[C.O.B.]

I have always taken a couple of shots with the rifle I'll use in the upcoming season. Some of them haven't been out of the safe in a very long time. I can't remember when I last took the 358 into the deer blind. If I am going to put a bullet into a deer or whatever then that animal deserves to have the gun sighted in so I can make as clean a kill as possible.
