I would use the scope on my mark V live wild rifle, also chamber in 300 wind mag.

Hey @xiongs13 - Congratulations on winning the scope! Shoot me an email [e-mail] and let's get this squared away! You have until October 10th, 3pm PDT to claim the Viper HD scope! Thank you all for participating in the giveaway!

Fellow Washingtonian here! Its my 12 year old sons 1st year hunting. Bought him the Ruger American Gen II Ranch (per your recommendation 😊) chambered in 6 mm ARC. The vortex scope would be perfect as I don’t have a scope for it yet. I’m a big fan of your channel, PNW boys and the vortex gear. All my optics, bino and spotting scope are vortex. God Bless you brother! ⛰️🦌🌲🫎🐻

[@SamongOutdoors]

ANNOUNCEMENT: I am writing this on top of a mountaintop where I somehow have service! I'm still in mountains chasing elk, but it has been brought to my attention that there are scammers going around here telling you that you have won the giveaway. DO NOT fall for that! All instructions of the giveaway stand as stated in the video, and I will personally respond to the actual winner's comment on my KZbin account! That's all! Happy hunting and good luck!

[@Pnw-outdoor]

@@SamongOutdoors good luck!

[@patrickschultz8820]

Congratulations on that bear! Great shot! I have a rifle that was given to me by a late friend. It has needed a quality optic since I took possession of it. It was his dream to take an elk with it. That Viper will bring that dream within reach. All Glory to Him who saves us!

[@ChueLor-u5m]

Tikka 30-06

[@shanesalas2505]

Much appreciated for the heads up, brother. Good luck with your hunt. God speed.

[@bryanwaybrant925]

I've been watching you for a while now. Enjoy everything you do. At age 70, you bring back good memories. Still do a little hunting, fishing. Do it while you're young. Good luck with everything you do.

[@ericnyberg1074]

The picture of you before the shot with the treeless mountains and blue sky in the background should be made into a 4 foot picture…. Stunning ! Oh ya,,, congrats on the bear too!

[@moualor6436]

As a hunter, I feel for these animals too. Hearing that bear moan was sad. Great hunt and I loved the video.

[@joseespinoza4780]

I am a hunter and could have done without hearing its moan…. I actually felt bad for the bear. Congratulations on the harvest though. 😢

[@AlmostHomestead]

Yeah, and laughing about it seems disrespectful IMO. At any rate, Samong's channel is one of my favorites.

[@DKRYMMA]

Yeah my boy was having a nice day eating some berries. I feel bad for big game I think and give absolutely 0 cares about stuff like birds and squirrels and fish

[@monserratmendoza1047]

Been following my husband for his hunts for the last few years and I got a new 30-60 springfield 😊, we enjoy watching your videos!

[@SailRider31]

Hay man love all your stuff and your content keeps getting better every year! Thanks for all the tips Would love to upgrade the scope on my new 6.5 creed-more I got last year on Black Friday deals !

[@What1see]

I enjoy watching you for a few reason. The main reason is you’re a believer and a brother in Christ. And you don’t try to sell us a bunch of crap. Lol

[@wa2txcory]

Awesome video. Heading to WA for opening week for whitetail/mule deer. Coming from Texas (originally from WA) so my 9 year old son, father in law, and my dad can all hunt together for maybe first and last time ever. Just bought a cva cascade 7 mag (per your videos) for my father in law to use this season so I would put the vortex on that. Also made me want to get a bear tag when we head up there since it’s been 20 years or so since I took a bear.

[@bryani.6224]

I just completed my online Hunter Safety Course here in CA. I’ve never been hunting. I’m 58 years young and need a hobby when I retire in a few years. I don’t have a hunting rifle. I have ARs, shotgun and handguns. So if I were to win the Vortex scope I would have to buy a hunting rifle. By the way great videos and I always look forward to your hunting and fishing videos.

[@ADVENTURESOFBZ]

Ohhh brother, i need that vortex on my new Ruger American .308!!! I bought it off my boy but vortex is so good he kept the scope that was on the rifle. So now i own my first rifle ever with no scope lol. And rifle season is just beginning here in Florida 💪🤘🤘 Hunting season is upon us, look forward to tons of Samong content baby🙏❤️💪💪🇺🇸

[@coloradocatchcleanandcook3426]

Love when the hunting content starts coming out.

[@WalkingForChange1]

Another great video 🔥 definitely encourages me in going out and trying several hunts. My last solo hunt was not successful though. I would pair my 30.06

[@PNWild]

Such a fun hunt brother, Thanks for all the memories! Cant wait to run it back in 2025 LFG!

[@gunmetalz510]

Someone as @samong_outdoors just messaged me and a bunch of folks here that they have won the scope. I didn’t fall for it but I’m sure many will!!

[@CodyGlenn-b9k]

Love your videos keep em coming. Vortex all the way. Best glass. Will go perfect on my tiki T3 7mm rem mag. Can’t wait to watch your next elk hunting trip

[@duckwacker8720]

It's there an option to upgrade to a Leupold? Asking for myself.🤣

[@wildthang89]

Awesome video. Keep up the amazing work Samong! I would put that scope on Tikka t3x lite 6.5prc!

[@praydriven8409]

Oooh yeaaa!!! Been waiting!

[@MercierBrandon]

Congrats on the bear Samong! We always enjoy watching your videos - from Washington. I would put it on my Ruger 30-06, Good luck on the rest of the season 👍👍

[@mhasicover1505]

Love your efforts and the quality u put in your video ... Also will love to see the scope on my X-Bolt western hunter LR

[@jenniferprater8366]

We love your videos! My husband and I have seen almost everything you have posted. We too are from Washington and love to see familiar hunting country. We have a new Bergara Ridge 28 Nosler that needs a scope still. This scope would be perfect!

[@codyramsden3460]

Another awesome vid! Love it when good things come out of Washington! Btw I’d mount it on a weatherby mkv 338 lapua that I just completed but is in desperate need of a scope.

[@randyray1194]

As a fellow Washingtonian I love watching your adventures! Keep up the hard work. That scope would look beautiful on my Benelli Lupo chambered in .308! Cheers

[@jakeburkholder840]

Great job on your hunt and pack out! My nephew and I were out looking for a bear and almost got a cougar, maybe next time! I would put the scope on my 30-06.

[@landonarman819]

Bergara b14 wilderness in 7mag. Loved the video, you've inspired me to get back into the mountains to chase bears. 3rd year still looking to tag my first.

[@nativewarrior3375]

I would want to say I love the channel I even have my wife watching with me in the living room lol.. I would put this on my .308 XPr

[@danielher9999]

Nice bear. I enjoy your squirrel hunting vids! Seasons just started for us. That scope would look good on Bergara B-14 HMR 300

[@neuryx4044]

Recently got a Tikka T3x and would love to have that on it, hoping to practice at longer distances.

[@roberthall8048]

Would fit well on my cva cascade in 6.5 creed, as always love the videos with you and the pnwild guys ! Good luck this season !

[@jarodbiele1134]

Id be looking at putting it on a custom tikka build in 6.5PRC for my wife's first rifle! Great shot on that bear!

[@KreigK04]

I always look forward to your videos! I would put the scope on my 7mag to update it a bit!! Thanks

[@Yeng530]

As always great quality video! Keep up the good work! If I get a chance to win the optic I would pair it with my Browning X-Bolt hells canyon in a 6.5 creedmoor

[@Letmeslideinyou]

What a shot! Nice job brother.

[@kid5oh3]

Great video and great inspiration. Plan on putting the scope on CVA cascade 6.5 prc

[@lorenzosantistevan3353]

Congrats on the successful hunt! I always enjoy your content and hunts! If I won the Vortex scope, I would put it on my Browning X-Bolt in 6.8 western, that's my go-to for everything

[@smazerolle]

That scope would like awesome on a new Tikka T3 Lite. Love the videos man.

[@brianhait7256]

Congrats on the bear! Would love to add that scope to my CVA Cascade LR Hunter 7PRC (bronze). Just got back from a 12 day back country archery elk hunt in CO. No luck this time… next trip will be a rifle trip(hopefully!). Keep making great videos!! Thx!

[@rickhoward2259]

Love watching your videos. 2nd yr hunting here in Washington state. I'd mount that bad boy on my 30-06. Good luck everyone!!

[@cherkong3283]

Great content. Stumbled onto your channel and I was hooked. Congrats on your bear. If I were to win I would pair it with my Browning Bar Mak ii 30-06.

[@adamsymons1779]

Looking forward to seeing what this season has in store for you guys! I’d put it on my Cooey 30-06!

[@adamyoung5392]

Bought an sig cross in 6.5 for my wife for Mother’s Day this year. This would make an awesome Christmas present to go on top of it!

I just started hunting and primarily spearfish. Always good to have partners weather in the open ocean or in the deep forest to watch your back and keep you safe. And nice job on the Billies on your Maui hunt! Imma mount it on a Ruger predator 308 w/ an oryx field stock chassis.
