In situations where adjusting a scope's reticle requires a tool, the "screwdriver" referred to in the video is also known across North America as a coin. ;^)
Kristin is a great asset. Iron sights add about $50 to a rifle's cost from factory. A few rifle's without sights will come with scope rings/mounts for the same price as the one with sights. Henry long ranger comes to mind. 3-9x40 is probably overkill for most purposes. A 2-7x33 with 1" tube probably better for most people bc it's lighter, less bulky. Picatinny rails add more weight than traditional 2 piece ring mounts and in traditional hinged magazines a rail may interfere with top loading. I don't like the see through mounts bc they add extra height. This may lead to having to get a stock with with a high or adjustable comb to allow for proper cheek to stock. The extra height also puts more stress on the scope as it gets farther from the rifle when firing.
Just clicked on the vid, have yet to watch, but, the most important thing for a deer hunting scope is light transmission, lens coating. The most critical time is early at dawn's first light, or more likely, just before dark thirty, as legal hunting hour ends. This is directed to forested or eastern U.S. hunting in woodlands, not out west in vastness or an eastern power line or gas transmission line easement. If your glass can't let you see them, the distance or caliber is moot. My first hunt, 1958, a retired RR man took me rabbit hunting, my first buck, 1969. Love watching whitetails. I buy every Redfield Denver, U.S. made Illuminator I can find. It's still "the one."
what =any will do just sight in, 4x good or get a rifle with irons, today companies own stock in scopes Co. no rifle is a good shooter unless you have sights.
Hi I am thinking of buying a gun on your website but I have a question you know your seim auto shotguns the bolt why is it round on the picture of the gun can you tell me so I know your is that how it looks when you buy it
Why when i keep buying rifle scopes for my rifle it stops zeroing? Is it because i didnt choose the perfect scope for my rifle or is the scope made for other rifles and why when i zero my scope it wont go bullseye in the crosshair it just stops clicks
There could be more than one reason. Proper scope installation, solid. Marksmanship, not proper gun rest, windy day, ammunition that not doing well in that particular gun, and lastly a cheaply made bad scope that internal parts move each time taking a shot. So there could be a combination of all the above you need to pin point yourself or get help from someone who is professional. My advice is do your homework before buying anymore scopes and settle on which works the best for you. I wasted lots of money, costed me nice bucks before. I learned that a good quality scope is a must . Not recommending anything, but from my homework, Leupolds won’t disappoint you. Currently I’m dealing with the same thing. I should’ve cried once, but here I’m crying twice cuz whatever I bout before is wasted.
Amazing how little information is actually in this video... Basically brings up points that "you need to consider", but doesn't actually give any information on said points.

Good luck finding a coin post covid.

This was well done. Good information and easy to understand. Well done you two!

Very true. Good glass is so important. Thanks for the comment.
Kristen.....you are a pleasure to watch.....great presentation and knowledgeable teacher!
That is a great observation
At 5:11, a 1-inch tube has a 25.4mm diameter.
I was always told to spend as much on glass as on the gun. Great video!
Completely agree .I only shoot leupold what’s the point of a nice rifle with a scope that can’t hold a zero
I wonder where that recommendation came from? I'm guessing the scope companies came up with that.
Those tip-offs on that Savage...I hear Robert Ruark calling
😀

No focal plane discussions? This was a great video but feel that would add another layer.
Nice Savage 1899! Love that gun!
That's a great observation
At least this is more reasonable than spend 2 times the amount on a scope than you did a gun.

Mounting a scoops is not that hard.
Take your time and have the right tools.
Excellent video!

Buy once cry once. Buy better glass.

thank you for the information
Excellent!
This lady is one bad ass mofo! She shoots bigger calibers more accurately than 99percent of men I've seen. Awsome ❤
Great observation 😂

Why hunt the poor deers ?
So they dont die from starvation after they eat up all the vegetation.
@@nmende00 Smart !!
Population control, this is why the department of wildlife only gives out a certain number of tags
Venison jerky! 😋
Same reason I buy steaks at the store. To EAT them.
