I changed my scope out on my  Ruger 77 22mag to a Zeiss Conquest 2.5-8x32. I liked the look/mounting of the smaller scope and not having to fool with the parralax adjustments. Plus I didn't need that much power range on the gun. Have original box,paperwork, sunshade,etc. It has only been on the .22mag and I will include the Luepold M77 rings if wanted.There's a small scuff on the elevation turret cap but otherwise is like new. Sell for - Lowered $500 shipped US only.

Bump before x-mas. I actually had decided to keep this scope and put on a new Tikka T3 I am waiting on, but decided the other day to put my 4200 on it due to the low light capability of the firefly reticle on the 4200.
 
I have had several "low" ball offers on this scope. I bought it new from SWFA for $750 and know it's genuine. I can't imagine some of the folks getting a genuine 6500 for the prices mentioned to me.
 
I will take $500 for mine -shipped US .

You have a good scope for a very good price.  I certainly wish I needed another scope right now... I would jump on it.  I am scope rich and gun poor at the moment... trying to convince myself I really NEED a 600 Overkill rifle and another 30-06, and a 45-70 in Ruger #1, and...  The stock on your Ruger is very much like the stock on my CZ550 375 H&H.  Constantly get good comments on it.  

Surely, someone will wise up soon.

Thanks, it is a very nice scope in practically new condition.I'll just keep it if I can't get $500 , I am sure I will need it before too long.
 
I'll be down in your neck of the woods this weekend. I don't know if I am going to get time to hunt down there or not on this trip. Probably make it back in Jan for the rut! Hopefully with my new 6.5x55 !
 
I am going to be out of town from 12-16 to 12-23, if I miss a message.

Must be a Winchester Model 70 and not "too nice" to transfer the barreled action to a Choate Super Sniper stock.  Should be a good shooter.
