Looked at the Weaver and Leupold scopes today. Decided on the Leupold
VX-1 2-7 X 28MM scope ($219.95 @ Mahoney's, same as Midway and everywhere else, so I'll buy that at Mahoney's and pay my TN sales tax as I should) but I decided on the Weaver 49046 rings.

Mahoney's has the rings stickered @ $16.99 which I thought strange only after I went to Weaver's website and saw Weaver's MSRP @ $14.49! Smells bad! Salesman recommended Weaver rings instead of Leupold due to price difference.

I remembered Mahoney's price on the BX-25 Mags for the 10/22 being higher than Ruger's MSRP. I bought 4 of them @ MidwayUSA.

Guess I'll get the rings @ MidwayUSA.

And yes, I do file a quarterly (or semi-annually, if I forget) Sales and Use Tax return and pay use tax on internet purchases. It's the right thing to do! https://apps.tn.gov/usetax/ Render unto Caesar...

next trip I'll decide on a scope for the Browning Buck Mark

salesman suggested cardboard backer with blown up balloons stapled to the cardboard as targets for instant gratification when a hit bursts the balloon -- I like this idea
