you mentioned scope rings, are they a one size fits all kind of deal? or is there a million types of those.

Scope has a main tube... That tube has a diameter, generally 2 types. So by the scope first, so you know the tube diameter, then the rings.

Archie wrote:But I slightly disagree with juststarting on this. For what its worth I have a .22 with a 2-7 which seems about perfect magnification for that and it spends more time close to 2 than 7. I have a 223 with a 4-12 and in retrospect I think its probably too much magnification for that rifle - or at least unnecessary and I probably should have gone 3-9.

but at the same time it wont be my last car....er gun....so i don't want to spend too much now so that i can spend more later on!
but yes scope might be an area to spend more money on cause it will be able to be reused elsewhere.
all of that aside, is there anything scope, bipod, rifle that i should avoid like a justin beiber concert, bubonic plaugue or any other similar grade of calamity.

Sabre scopes..... avoid them lol

I actually prefer the cheap $40 Chinese bipods over my $100+ Harris.
