one AND it uses M14 mags (cause it is one).

The Leupold is THE scout scope IMO. BUT, for my eyes (mandatory disclaimer) it must be mounted just so. We have a customer who has one mounted just so on his Mini-14 (a 581 series) and it is just right. Throw it up and the sight picture is perfect... for me.

I like big, long heavy for caliber, penetrating bullets as folks tend to get behind things when the shooting starts. I will be messing about more with the 77 gr. Sierra MK in my AR.
