Thanks for the info. What do you do with the skull?

Setting up my Tikka T3x .223 and should be ready for my first hunt over the holidays!
I am going with a Vortex viper
3x9x40 BDC scope hope it has enough magnification for yote hunting.... lol
A 3x9 is plenty, I rarely zoom in more than a 7 or 8...... most times it stays at 4..
I like the a solid multi X style, it helps me see the cross hair lines easier... Those other scopes withe the dots are too small and the cross hair lines are too thin for me to pick up right away....
Always fun when they come running in and you try to get them to stop at the same time trying to centre them in the cross hairs, excitement at it's best 
Good luck

Excellent work
Having done a few euro mounts I know the work involve.
If I shoot a wolf, I will give it a try.
I also have problem with the mil-dots. Multi X for this old guy also.

Do you ever watch that "Mountain Men" show of which a good part is about how to tan?
