I like it.  Do you play with your scope on?  I have a red dot scope but take it off for playing.  When I get time I will build a simple sheet metal box to protect it.

As Reb said, it looks good but hella long. I'd think you'd get caught up on a variety of things in the woods.

I do play with the scope on. the only real problem with it is that if you increase the vol. or decrease it the scope gets out of tune so i try to keep it at the same level. I've been shot twice dead on the scope. still fine, works great.
