I am wanting a good scout scope for this rifle. As I know it is high recoil and a more expensive rifle than most I own. I am guessing 2-7x or similar. Any recommendations?
I can't speak for their durability - maybe others can. I have thought about getting one. I wish someone would make a pistol scope with 1X-nX power range - they do for rifles.
Look at where you want to mount the scope and measure the distance from there to where your eye is when the rifle is mounted to your shoulder/cheek. For me, only pistol scopes have the eye relief that I need.
As Wombat started Leupold makes 2 different pistol scopes. An FX-II in 4x and a VX-3 in 2.5x. I have an older FX-II in 2x on my Super RedHawk .454 but they no longer make that scope.
I have one of the 2.5x8 Leupold pistol scopes on a revolver currently. I maybe should get one in black for this. I am going to be slightly vain on this one.
