Upwards of 60,000 axis deer inhabit the island of Molokai. That combined with the fact the island is one of the least visited in the Hawaiian chain makes it a fabulous winter getaway.

We’ve come to expect solid reliability from the Model 70 rifle, and the Extreme TrueTimber VSX MB doesn’t disappoint. It’s built for the backcountry and loaded with modern features like a threaded muzzle, fluted barrel, Cerakote finish and quality composite stock.

Here’s a look at some of the best long-range hunting scopes on the market.

These five riflescopes offer big-game hunters great value at a budget-friendly price.

The VX-3HD CDS-ZL gives you more than your money’s worth. If you’re an old-school (or at least older) hunter who’s settled in with your old scope, you might want to entertain a roving eye in the scope realm.

Leupold introduces its new VX-3HD line of riflescopes. Aimed squarely at the hunting market, the VX-3HD promises outstanding low-light performance in a lightweight package.

The Backcountry Ti is one of the newest additions to the Mark V line, and a welcome addition to a fairly limited field of production rifles in its class. It features a titanium action, carbon-fiber stock and a very thin profile, fluted barrel.

What is the ideal scope magnification that can cover nearly all hunting scenarios? Is it possible to have “too much scope”?
