Ive been looking for this gun for some time now , i know that this gun is no longer avalible in left hand anymore , that made finding one even harder

Gun (http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/content/community/gun_inventory/inventory/owatonna/fine_rifle/490158_wby270wlh_owa.jsp)

there going to be shipping it to my loacal gun shop tomarrow

now its just picking what scope i want to put on it , im thinking a Leupold would look nice on it

you know, a good rule of thumb is to spend the same amount or more on optics as you do on the gun. Swarovski maybe?

:D

nice gun BTW

i was thinkin lil more around $300 to $500 on the scope

thank you , ive seen a few Swarovski there very nice

I can envision a Leupold VX-III 3.5-10x40 (http://www.riflescopes.com/products/LEU55042/leupold_3.5-10x40_vx-iii_riflescope.htm) on that guy


boy it sure is fun to spend somebody else's money :D

That is a nice one , theres too many to pick from lease ill have some time before i get the scope. im going to wait till i get the gun almost paid off

other two im looking at are

VX-II 4-18x40 and VX-II 4-12x50 there both around the same price as that VX-III

i cant wait to hold that gun

I just put a Leupolod 6-18X40 on my .223. Can't go wrong there.

Cool , the 6-18x40 is a nice power scope

i like my 4-12x40 on my 7mm and the 6-18x50 on my 300 ultra mag

Have you thought about a 4-12?? It might be the better power for that caliber. What do you plan to hunt with this gun? I guess I am trying to figure out what the farthest distance is you will be using it. 18 power may be a little much. Just depends.

What about this one??

Ive been looking at the 4-12 , Main target now will be deer and maybe later work up to bigger game. range not sure depends on where i go.

midway is being a pain tonight , everyone once in awhille it dont work for me ill check the link later

i know the 4-12 on the 7mm i can read a target at 100yrds , the wrighting on it. so it would do the job good on the 270

I might be beating a dead horse here but, you might want to try the Swift 676AO in 4-12X
Also has lifetime warranty, costs about $139.00 at the address below:
I now have three of them, with no complaints-

Good Luck

Cool , i cant hurt to look at other options

I put a Cabela's Alaskan Guide 4-14x50 on my 300 RUM. It seems to be holding up well so far. It's as clear as scopes for 3X the price.

I would opt for the LEUPOLD! A power in the 2 X 7 will cover all the bases for hunting big game animals. Anything more, especially in warm weather will cause heat waves off the barrel, that will distort your viewing of said game animal.

I love my 270 Weatherby Magnum. It started with a Leupold VariX III but now has a Ziess 3x9. I prefer the Ziess. It it easier to adjust the ocular lens to my aging eyes. Also don't forget the new Ziess America scopes. I have 2 of them and they are comparable to my European Ziess for my eyes. I think you can find one for $450-499, about the price of a Leupold. Anyway, when the eyes get older the european fast adjusting eyepiece is nice.

Midway is finally back working , that one is nice

im going to go with a 4-12 , just not sure if it will be x40 or x50 both are nice

i know i want a leupold , if im going to spend $2000 after sh and tax on a gun might aswhell spend lil on a good scope

the gun did come in today

went to the shop and the box was siting there waiting for me to open it. its nice lil wear on it but thats ok. cant wait to pay it off and good shoot it

, then its to my list to find my next gun i want

riflescopes.com (http://www.riflescopes.com/departments/86/rifle_scopes/leupold_hunting_riflescopes/leupold_vx-ii_riflescopes.htm?sb=&so=&page=4) I think has some of the best choices as far as reticles you want along with great prices. ALSO with the Leupolds I believe you can get your rings and mounts free which is always nice.


***edti**** Though I just checked and I am not sure you can get mounts for a LH Mk V :(

The gun already has mounts and rings with it.

Im going to have the same shop the orderd the gun for me get the scope. cabelas took $100 off the gun and didnt tell him so hes going to work out a good deal on a leupold scope for me. i buy all my gun stuff from the same guy so he works out a good deal for me , thats for the link i can give him a few prices ive seen and see what he can do for me
