That is a very nice looking set up!! A classy , not overly done look. Have you sighted it in? I am curious as to how close to center the crosshairs are?

I know a bunch of people like to carp on the old weavers but they were great scopes.
Weaver was "the" scope for a long time along with the old Redfield line. I am too young to be from that era but have several of them myself. I actually prefer that most people keep snubbing them because that makes them cheaper for me!! I have blued in a K6-F fine crosshair , and a K4 standard duplex. And the later built true stainless steel bodied scopes in K4-S duplex (2 - with one being a straight tube shotgun style) , P4-S duplex , and a P2-S duplex. The P series being pistol scopes.
I think the quality after the mid 80's buyout of Weaver went downhill for a long time but with the new Grand Slam and Super Slam scopes they are definitely back. I also have several of those and they are top notch. Everyone insists you must have a Leupold but I get as much scope at half the price. Leupolds are decent but you are paying a lot for a name like buying Nike's!
