[QUOTE="Country Bumpkin, post: 1684904, member: 92230"] We all have various levels of engagement in this sport, and we are all from different walks of life with different expendable incomes. My Wife and I have “good” jobs, 2 young children that have a lot of interests/activities (cha-ch$ng). We manage our money well and have an eye for the future. I was reading a thread recently about various mountain scopes, and some of you fellers listed off 6-8 scopes that you currently have in circulation that I would absolutely drool over. I’ve lusted over the “kit” required to do long-range hunting any justice for years and years. In addition to a small safe filled with hand-me-downs and affordable factory guns, I have 1 custom rifle that was given to me as a thank you for coaching their sons lacrosse team for 3 years (fortunately it came with a nice scope too - VX6 6-24x52). I shoot as often as I can, I but in reality I wish I could shoot 3-4 times more than I do .... it’s the cost of ammo/components that prevents me from going hog wild. I also would like to get a light caliber semi custom to get my kids in on the fun (but we will make do with our ruger American predator just fine. I stand no chance of “keeping up with the Jones’” but I’d sure be curious to know.... Age Occupation Kids / no kids Dollars invested in custom rifles and attached scopes This should be interesting!
