I echo the sentiments here. I hunt with my 14 year old daughter all the time. I can't imagine doing this. She and I talk about gun safety almost every time we go to the woods. Even being that particular about it, accidents can still happen. Prayers to this family.
Ok. So, I have found where I can get a brand new Vortex Razor 27-60x85 for $1000. The Meopta S2 brand new is $2600 and I can possibly get a used one for around $2000. If you were going to use this spotter maybe a couple times a year for family vacation purposes, would you still spend the...
