Gotcha. I have other upgrades I want to do and I don't want to spend $200 on a $350 rifle. Doesn't make sense to me. If I had other rifles or I did a lot of hunting then it would be justified. Even a $100 is fine. Thanks for the input.
The thing about a good scope is that we tend to keep them after we sell off or trade the current rifle and put it on another rifle.
