Cabela's Alaskan Guide Scopes

[bclark1]

Anyone have feedback on these yet? They've been mentioned here and there but there's nothing really definitive, except that people feel Leupolds are nicer - which is pretty much the answer given any optics question. My frame of reference is the Burris Fullfield II, which I'm very satisfied with. Anyone have any input?

I'm more inclined to go with something by a actual scope manufacture.

Lately i've been using only Nikon scopes, but have had Leupolds in the past. For my next rifle I plan on using a Burris Fullfield w/ the ballistic-plex reticle.

I'll wait for someone with experience using the Cabelas scopes too.

I have a 4.5 - 14 x 44 Alaskan Guide scope on my Ruger #1B in 22-250. I think it is a pretty good scope for the money although it is a little on the heavy side. if they would have made it as a 40 mm it would be just right. if I had another application for one I would certainly buy another one.
