Anyone here running fixed power scopes?…specifically western hunters
I have a S&B 8x56 in my safe just hanging out. Can’t figure out what to put it on. It’s fairly large and heavy, but super clear and incredible in low light.
I’m looking for a Tikka 6.5 Creedmoor for southern whitetail and western elk/muledeer/antelope. Thinking 20” with my 5” TBAC can. I have a very lightweight Vortex Razor 3-15x42 with G4 reticle I’ll likely run on it. Should I consider the heavy 8x56?
If not, what type setup would you run the 8x56 with? It’s a great optic, and I hate to not be using it for something.
