Just another thought I just had on backup. If I can on hunting rifles I sight em in with the iron sights if I can and them Leave them on the gun. That way if a scope did happen to get broke I can remove it and still hunt. I can't on one 700 but the other 700 the Winchester, and Savage still has their iron sights along with the scope.
