Baffles me.

My only .22. Scope isn’t particularly helpful when using it to dispatch trapped coyotes and coons

I have a Browning X Bolt Stalker with a SWFA 10x on it and I hate the way it looks but love the way it performs. So I leave it as is.

I guess now that I see it in a picture it doesnt look half bad.

function trumps looks....

OK.... I gotta come clean. I made the long sunshade pic just to dick with casey. I had to scotch tape a bunch of 2 inch shades together on the top and side away from the camera, so they'd stay together long enuff to pose the fake pic. I'm still snickering, tho.....

With the price of those shades now, your sitting on a gold mine. I dont mind people dicking around at my expense, I do the same at times!

I hear what the OP is saying and agree with him. With that said, ook at the trend in the industry. Everything is moving to more magnification and _HEAVY_. I've made the mistake of putting a 30 oz scope on a Tikka T3x light. It definitely upsets the balance of the rig. That alone has caused me to pay attention to weight and length of the scope. Vendors want to tout 30mm+ tubes and miles of erector travel.
