It’s a small smorgasbord of stuff I need to get rid of. First is the Burris scope: Scout scope, 2-7x32. Has some minor surface scuffs but overall is in excellent condition. Glass is clear and bright, no mechanical issues. Rings are included. With the long eye relief I thought this would work...

If you haven’t done so, listen to the Big Game Hunting podcast with Jason from Lipseys. He unveils a lot of their thinking, what limits they have in working with Ruger and future products. Three key messages from him: 1. With the introduction of their latest M77 Alaskan rifles in 35 Whelen and...

I went that route thinking it would be a simple solution. Bought a used Burris 2-7 scout scope. Great scope, wrong application. Turns out, too much eye relief is as much a problem as too little.

As a proud owner of a #1 RSI I am only confounded by one thing, and that is the alignment of the stock with the scope. I think the rifle is designed around using open sights, which I’m a fan of, but the scopes have too many advantages to reject using them. So I have a scope on my RSI but when...
