Nikon Coyote Special

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

   I've have more than a two dozen scopes over the years.  From the Leupy 6.5-2-x50LR/T w/varmint reticule to the absolutely wonderful Nic-Star mounted on a CO2 rifle.... lol.   A few months ago I bought an AR-15, Rock River Predator/Coyote with 20" match stainless barrel and all the good things about the Rock River.  I've been looking for a scope, not to much money this time.  I read about the "Falcon Menace 4-14x40FFP mil-dot.   The reviews have been good on the scope, but i'm not sure i want to try it.  I also have a Bushnell 5-15x50AO duplex 3200. It has been a very nice scope for my Rem700 26"flutted barrel, McMillan Stock that I had re-chambered to 22-250AI, for the money it's bright, even around the edges and almost superior to a few of my Leupy's.  Not bad for $300.  I'd like to stay around the $300-$400 mark, not a lot to spend right now....  Especially after stocking up on reloading supplies due to the changing political climate, lol.  Are there any reviews that I can read directed at the New Nikon 4.5-14 Coyote Special w/BDC?  I'm just about to order one and can't quite make up my mind. 

Signed, undecided

	This is my Rock River, I'm just starting to do some "Camo" work on in, the scope is a 3.5-10x40 AO Vari-X III that was one of my extra's that I've used for breaking in the rifle. It's not a bad scope, but the "shinney black finish" on the Leupy just won't work, lol.

	send back to leupold and they can fix the color.im guessing that the coyote bdc is just a buck master with the camo finish. Edited by pyro6999 - March/03/2009 at 15:04

	I've checked out a number of Web-Sites, some a little less than SWFA but they don't have any in stock. I want the Advantage Camo version of the scope..... I've seen it for $309+-.
