[QUOTE="Rob72, post: 1167585, member: 707"] Well, since he went ahead and said it...:chat: Lots of people freak, and call one a snob for saying/doing this, but ultimately, you'll be much happier. I have a $700 .308 with a $400 Burris Sig on it. Clear glass, excellent warranty, and a build strong enough that I probably won't need the warranty, with my usage. Semi-autos have strong recoil forces that tend to be a bit abusive to optics. I won't say that cheaper scopes [I]won't[/I] work, just that the odds of having to buy another (replacement) are [U]much[/U] higher. Having a scope go down when you're punching paper is no biggie; if you hunt it can be painfully disappointing. [/QUOTE]
