[QUOTE="Ugly Dogs, post: 384811, member: 974"] I'll be using it Deer, Elk and Moose. I hunt deer and elk every year with my 7MM and Moose about every 3 years. I've been shooting a .338 AI for Moose but as I have got older and have shoulder that needs to be reattached the .338 has become a pain to shoot and I will not ever have a muzzle break. I truly love the 7MM but I thought it would be cool to try something else. Like I said before I am not technical guy when it comes to guns, to me it's just tool like a hammer. I don't know what a fast twist is. I have always just grabbed a gun of the shelf and thrown a Leupold on it, usually in the $1,000 range. I have never had a scope that multiple reticles in it. Always just one. This will be my Legacy gun that my son will get so I'm willing to spend more this time and I want to do it right. The gun isn't my biggest decision, it's the scope that I'm more unsure of. I do appreciate the answers but please dumb it down for me. My last 3 rifles have been Christenson and I like them but I'm looking at other options and can always fall back to one of those. Also I'm a big guy a little over 6'8" so getting a gun to fit me has been a problem. [/QUOTE]
