Low powered scope for lever gun?

[SmTx]

I’ve got a Leupold 2-7x32 on my Marlin 35 rem and works great for me.

This is what I planned on putting on my 35 remington but I think I'll go with one of the low powered vx3i mentioned earlier in this thread when it's time to scope.

Hoping I have at least 10 more years of open sights before I have to scope

Thanks. I am a fan of Leupold but I thought it was twice as expensive. (I must have been looking at one of their pricier lines) I now see the Freedom is also about $200. Gonna get that one.

You can find those VX3 1.5-5s for around that. Paid 250 for mine.

If it ain’t a vx3i I wouldn’t pick it over the freedom. I wouldn’t pick anything anymore without the Twilight coatings.

That goes for binos too, I gave my old Leupold binos to kids.

You can get the 1-5x20 VX3i on buds with price match at an almost unbeatable deal. I must say that in most respects I like the Freedom 1-4 more than the VX3i 1-5. That power ring really does it for me too.

It's even cheaper right up in post #5. I'm a Bud's fan, but they don't always have the lowest price.

You shol right bout dat. Best I could get today was $329 from Buds

Retailers must hate them

I have a Leopold VX3 1.75 - 6 on my hog hammer. Love it! Great light gathering and I enjoy the 6 power.

straight 4x and be done with it.

I have a weaver 1-3x28 or close too and like it just for being crosshairs. At 1x you can see the end on the barrel in the scope.

Looks good, make sure you have enough room to drop hammer since your mounts look low. Just a safety thing as my fat fingers have trouble sometimes on mine.

I can do it but it’s a bit of a pinch on the ol’ thumb. Already ordered a hammer extension

[grizzman]

Nice. That will give you a lot of years of service.

One of my favorite scopes of all time is the fixed Leupold 4x and I could only wish they would update it with those Twilight coatings.
