Hi guys.
Stupid question... Does anyone know of a decent "classic" scope for hunting rifles? By "classic" I mean something that doesn't have a 34mm tube and 56mm objective and dials the size of a coffee mug and/or so much stuff in the reticle that you can't see the target.
I've learned to accept a 30mm tube, and (sort-of) a 50mm objective; although I prefer something with a 44mm (or smaller) objective. I've had scopes with BDC reticles and yardage on the dials, and still do, but I'm really gravitating back to simple cross hairs and MPBR.
The real issue is finding something that wouldn't look completely out of place on a single-shot 1885, for example. I like the look of my old Leupold VXlll on my Browning 1885, and I'm looking for something similar for a Winchester 1885, that I've never put a scope on. Is there anything out there?
