Well I just got a Tikka T1x from the LGS in order to get into NRL22 base class. Shot a match with a friend's rifle last year and, while it took awhile, the bug is back. Now saving for a scope.
Trying to keep this cheap and not spend on gear before skill warrants it. Planning on the
Talley unitized Tikka T1x rings. Adding a cheap Caldwell bipod, Triad Tactical cheek bag/pack, and an M1903 sling that I already have. Hoping CCI SV performs well but I'll of course test other brands as funds allow. Trying to keep expenses down at this point.
My friend was running a Primary Arms 4-14x40 with the R-Grid reticle. Really like the reticle and it performed well for me. But I'm also intrigued by the Athlon Argos BTR 6-24x50 since I can get it on Amazon for a few bucks more. I don't like the Argos reticle as much as the Primary Arms, but all the other features seem to compete well.
Which would you all prefer, and am I doing anything wrong with my setup?
