I have used my VS (similar) for deer hunting. And you're right, offhand shooting is out of the questions. I use a larger harris bi-pod (9"-27") with tilt/pan and shoot from a sitting position.
Burris Fullfield II 3x9 with a target knob installed on the elevation turret only ( I rarely if ever adjust for windage). Cheap , but it is a rock solid setup and I like it.PALADIN said:What scope are you using KLR1968?
Nothing wrong with Burris. My Leupolds have the target knobs on my elevation only also.KLR1968 said:Burris Fullfield II 3x9 with a target knob installed on the elevation turret only ( I rarely if ever adjust for windage).

I sent my scope back to Burris for the Tac-II knob. Scope cost $190 and the new knob cost $40. The whole setup sits on a one piece base and is held on with Burris tactical rings. Scope base is glass bedded to the reciever and the scope itself I bedded in the bottom half of the rings. It is like a rock.PALADIN said:Do you guys buy the same brand target knobs for your specific rifles, or are they generic or what? What's the cost on those? I may consider something like a Fullfield II or a VX-2 Leupold or something like that and get aftermarket knobs.
