You maybe ought to get down to the Patent Office first thing in the morning with that one, Roy!
 Wouldn't that look great on one of those new Remington rifles with the Triangular barrels?
 Wow!

For some reason, the Remington rep didn't think it was funny when I asked where to find triangle-shaped bullets.

Maybe the guys at Remington never played with a shape match toy when they were in Preschool and Kindergarten... making a triangular barrel that shoots round bullets.

I have a redfield / meade / whoknows that has a square eyepiece that is more exagerated than their widefield panoramic illuminator lenses that is very square but the tube is still round...It actually is one of my best picks to mount on plinkers for my wife she loves the "wideview"...

Oh and on the topic the VX-3L are very nice for not getting hung up in brush they just need to develop their perceived quality of their glass a little better.

Ant264, no, Leupold makes very good scopes and their customer service is about the best there is. Sometimes we just get carried away with teasing one another. My only beef with the VX-L is that I don't like the looks. I'm sure it's as solid as the rest of their line.
Remington rifles inspire confidence that most still strive for.
