Re: Which 338LM rifle?
+1 The sako trg 42 is a great rifle, the trigger is the best I have ever felt and the bipod makes the rifle incredibly steady. Also From what I read the sako trg is a little more accurate then the AI and it's at least 1.5k cheaper when you buy all the accessories for...
Re: Now I need an optic !
I have that same rifle scope on my 338 lapua and couldn't be happier. It's a bargain compared to other scopes that cost twice as much. Its SFP but you can always turn the power down to 11x and then your moa readings are have as much.
Hey guys thinking about getting one of these for hunting, seems like they are kinda hard to come by but, does anyone have any experience with them? I think this rifle and a nightforce nxs 2.5-10x32 would be a sweet combo.

Re: Cheap Optics
I've had great experience with weaver scopes. I have a weaver classic v series 6-24x42 scope on my 300 wsm hunting rifle. That rifle has a few gouges been dropped a few times from backpacking for whitetail deer, and it's still clear and held zero. I have my grandfathers...
Re: Which nightforce scope to get?
I like the np-r1 reticle with .250 moa adjustments, I've read that the moa measurements on this reticle is set up for 22 power?
Oh and that's an awesome picture and rifle Rob.
Thanks,

Hey guys my names Jon, and I'm new to forums. I'm shopping for a scope for my sako trg in 338lm. I've narrowed down my choices to the nightforce 5.5-22x56 or the 8-32x56. Will the 5.5-22 have high enough magnification for shooting to at least 1700 yards? If the 8-32 scope was zeroed at 100 yards...
