The IBEX is Named..."Manco Morto!"

...Chad, If I was going to add the additional bucks i would just go with the Leopold Crossbones....trying to keep the cost down.

Anthony

Ok, understood. I looked at it on the website and it really looks like a nice scope for the Ibex. I'd pull the trigger on it.

There is a Nikon Bolt on the classiifieds at a prettty good price.... I have one on my Axiom which is identicle to yours except for the stock design... I found the graduations line up 20 thru 40 ( about as far as I shoot my Axiom ) really nicely with no overhold nor thought on the shooters part... A good thing for old farts like you and me.

...actually just put an offer on ebay for one...If I get it for my offer it would be substantially less that the "trading post"....Unfortunately even if something is used 2 or 3x's people want (present company included) great deals...

Tony,

I have a new Vari-zone as a back-up in the gun safe I can loan you for awhile if you need it buddy ??

Well Anthony, seeing as I'm right there with ya, I'll address a couple of your quarries....fratello mio. As to vanes, there are some great choices, just keep in mind that they're all compared to the blazers and none have surpassed them. Some have come close to matching them...but not quite. Hmmmm. As for scopes, well, I've got my lueppies on my M380 and my newly customized 405. These are my primary hunting and 3D rigs. My new in the stable customized Y25 Exomax Blackout is wearing a new DLX scope I had on the shelf, and my still unassembled nib Equinox will wear a new TacZone I made a trade for (and got to show some love to a forum member). My point, these are secondary fun bows I'll love and have fun with but not my primaries so I also didn't want to spend primary $$$$.

I can't take credit for the idea. I saw Gene offer and then it hit me that I also have one and live much closer. Gene was.the true architect on this kind gesture.

You don't have to spring for a Crossbones to have a Leupold scope. The shotgun VXI's in 1-4x w heavy duplex, are kick arse and under 2 bills to your house. Just a thought
You know that you want a Leupold. Save the money on whatever else you are going to "save" on and buy the Leupold first.

I went back a couple pages or so and see you mentioning pank arrows for this one.... a couple posts down the road I'll probably see you mentioning your thinkin' of dippin' it in a "pank" camo pattern

This accessorizing thing is hitting you bad.... But that would be better than pink and white poka-dots I guess....

Your gonna' get people talking you know

That choice would not make the "cut" out west here buddy

Gene

Some great folks here! Hope you get to hunt with that Ibex this year!

...Thats OK...I am comfortable with my wom...er, manhood! ...plus I gots me a beautiful 19 year old Downs Syndrome daughter who beams from ear to ear when I tell her what I do with my bows, just for her!....wouldn't change that for the world...

....how many of you guys have a daughter who gives you a big back scratch EVERY morning AND on Fridays before hunting not only gives a back scratch but says out loud while giving it, "Get a deer, get a deer, get a big buck for Angelica!" ....and then gives me a big kiss!!!!

....pank and poiple power!

....I do stop short of pank thongs though .....
