So My wife decided that my MK III* needed a scope as its already a sporterized.
 
So after picking up a Weaver TO-1 rail which is a drill and tap rail
Now before anyone jumps on me, the rifle was drilled and tapped by its last owner.
 
and a piar of rings tie my weaver to my new Bushnell Elite 3200 firefly
 
 
and like every other time i try to post images it doesn't work so check the album on photobucket, you'll also see some shots while i was redoing that stock

Good stuff, if it's already been messed with you may as well finish the job properly mate.


But the winters coming,

And the snow will cover tracks,

And I'll be watching,

Because I'm hunting you

ya, well I'm really leaning towards to monte carlo stock, but I do kinda like the wood for now.  Gonna focus on more range time with it, before i decide.

 I've seen & used several synthetic Monte stocks in the last couple of years on .303's & I must admit to liking them as they really turn the rifle into a true 'Sporter' !

Ya, and they are easier on my wife's shoulder tooTongue
 
It's a cleaner look then a cheek pad, and with the added height of the scope mount, I have to have a higher rest.
 
So really it's comes down to not just an esthetic thing, but a function thing as well.
 
which makes it an easy sell to the wife
