G'day crew,
I went to my gun store yesterday and picked up a slightly used Remington 799 in 222. The rifle is great with the "mini Mauser" action, and it came with a Barska 6-24x43 scope and mounts. Now I've never had anything to do with these scopes and wondered if anyone here has. It seems clear enough, and I doubt that I'll be using it at much more that about 12x. Also I don't think the 222 is going to put too much hurt on it. At worst I can use it until it craps out then get something better. At the same time I don't want it crapping out in the field.
