I know.
But I can't lie, I love a good "bit dog" thread.....
(And in full disclosure, I don't own any $1,000 glass.)

is There a formula for getting the right ratio of rifle to scope cost?

5 to 1 if you shoot it more than 3 times a year.

But, it don't have to cost the most to make target the deadest, whatever works gets the job done, my kernshaw will cut as deep as a $500 microtech and my Bushmaster will send a bullet as fast, accurate and far as a $3500 LMT so like the jab, up to the beholder. Scopes, I been using the same kmart 3x9 on my deer rifle for 40 years now, works as good as buddys Swarovski.

Tell me you don't shoot past 25 yards without telling me you don't shoot past 25 yards

5 to 1 if you shoot it more than 3 times a year.
