Obviously I don't want to spend more than I did on the rifle itself. I just want something solid & dependable for these old eyes. Thanks alot.

Any more magnification limits field of view too much for me. Some guys are using the variable NcStar that is something like a 2-5 or 2-7x, but I can't speak about those from personal experience. I have also enjoyed using red dots on these with the scout mounts. Tom Ne Desit Virtus Rakkasans

But I will add that the NcStar 2.5x30 and 4x32 have worked very well for me, as well. I don't think that they make them, anymore, bit my all-time favorite pistol scope for my scout mounts is a Tasco 1.5-4x28 pistol scope. Hope this helps! Good Shooting and God Bless!!

I use the NcStar 4x32 it's been great for my other rifles. We'll see how it works on my 91/30 soon :-)
SNEAKY PETE	How does the Parallax effect Scout mounted Scopes??	#5	[-]

Parallax will effect your point of aim as illustrated by moving your head forom side to side and watching your cross hairs move across your target with scopes that don't have an adjustable objective lense. Most Rifle scopes with NON adjustable obj. lenses have their parallax set at 100 yds while pistol and other LER scopes have their parallax set at 50 yds. So I just installed a Weaver 4X28 Cla ssic handgun scope on a CMP Scout Scope Mount with Warne Q/R rings on my M1 Garand that I plan to hunt Ferral Hogs in Florida with and when I talked to Weaver (ATK) I was advised that the parallax setting was set at 50 yds. as most of my shos will be between 100>150 yds HOW will this Parallax setting (50 yds) effect my shot??? THANX--SNEAKY
