We had an absolutely amazing time and got up close to and looked over 68 elephants before we found an old tuskless cow with no calf at her side. We managed to get in very close and and I took...

    For Sale Vintage Leupold M8-2.5x fixed power compact scope

    I have two of these and they are one of the best bomb proof Scopes you could put on a dangerous game rifle. The perfect combination of compact size, and Crystal Clear Optics.

    One more firearm...or are you done?
