She shot a 1.75-inch group at 300 yards 2 weeks ago and is going hog hunting with me this weekend.

I thought maybe I should take my 300WM (since my hunting buddy killed a 400+ last time we were at this place) but figured confidence and dead-nutz precision will trump bullet weight.  With this gun, I can put a round in a coke can at 500 yards, so hitting a piggy one inch behind the ear should be no trouble at all.

The scope is still for sale, but I am having trouble figuring out why I need something else, the sale may end soon, this thing ash never let me know, why mess with something that ain't broken?

Except for the knobs, the body, the bell, the ocular, the power ring, and PROBABLY the glass, it kind of resembles an NcStar...

Yea, I guess if you squint real hard, and pay no attention to detail, and you disregard the big "US Optics" on the side, maybe it does.

When you look through it or turn a knob, there is no doubt it ain't NcStar material.

Hey RC, what is mounted on the rail behind the rear ring? Nevermind figured out it is the anti-cant from your work order above.

If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

This rifle-scope combo took the hog clean at just over 100 yards.

The "thing" behind the last ring is a level, for long-range shots.  I tend to naturally cant a few  degrees so the level keeps me honest at long range, when 5 degrees to the right is a very bad thing.

That it is not a leatherwood is indeed an issue, but I can deal with that issue.
