OOOhhh mid life crisis....I have owned my HW80 since 1984...and it's still as good as ever...used a 4x40 then before the Moonie ...I couldn't have imagined how I would ever have given my rifle up (girlies or not).....My old man and I used to have competitions shooting the heads off matches...He's gone over a decade, and my son has his shoot outs with me now...(the old man), it's like the circle of life !....Or death if a rat !
