BG> Have that 25-06 ready by deer season
 JR> so you can fill the old freezer. :-)
BG>I sent my scope to Tasco because one of the crosshairs fell out. It was
BG>old scope and it had been used when I got it and I damn sure got my mon

BG>repair center, $10.00 and a note telling what is wrong with it, they wi

BG>repair shop yet. I called again on May 8, and they said it had been shi

I hope that it wasn't lost somewhere in transit. If you have to get another 
scope, you might think in terms of Leopould. I have a couple of them myself 
and 
have had good experience's with them. here's why I suggest a Leopould. A 
co-worker of mine bought one used from someone he said about twenty years 
ago. 
Something on it broke or came loose and he shipped it back to the factory to 
get 
it fixed. They fixed it, swapped out the lens for the new type lens as they 
said 
the ones in there was old and no longer used, refinished it and shipped it 
back 
to him. There was no charges involved other than his cost to ship it in. You 
just can't beat a company that stands behind their products like that 
anywhere.
Waiting on deer season, whew, I'm getting ready myself. I plan on spending 
some 
time at the lease doing some work on some of the stands and a little 
couting.
We upped our dues a little to pay for an extra 120 acres to add on and one of 
the landowners upped their acreage fee, that'll give us a little over 9700 
acres 
now. We have a nice little lake on our lease and I could always carry a 
fishing 
rod alone. ;)
