A buddy of mine is considering a "precision" bolt gun. I advised the Remington 700 PSS in .308. I'm not really a "precision" rifle guy though the Rem 700 is my choice for a hunting rifle. What optics would be recommended for the PSS?

Check out the  Leupold Tactical and Mark 4 lines of scopes.Depending on the type of shooting your buddy is going to do, he'll have to decide whether to go to a variable or fixed power scope.The mark 4s are all fixed power, and the tactical line is variable.You can check them out at their website,www.leupold.com.Their service and warranty is excellent.You might also want to check out www.premierreticles.com.They specialize in modifiying Leupold scopes.Lots of good info there.HTH.
