Have you tinkered with the trigger at all?

I reckon with one of the new Hawke scopes with the .22 subs dedicated reticle out to 200 yards, that set up would be great for sniping the coneys way beyond normal distances.

They would never know where the shots were coming from.

I'm thinking of investing in one and putting it on the P94s Sako Varmint.

yes I like the principle but I no longer will buy a cheap scope as I have a had a lot of trouble wit wandering zeros

with recoil (not a prob here) and also with power change , I have been using the Leupold LR Duplex Reticle for

sevrel years on a 4-12 and with that and a 55y zero and at differing powers I had reliable aiming marks out to

183 yards so as you can see with the leupold varmint hunters rec it has more options so it will work for me :D
