SOLD/EXPIRED Scout Scope?

[jeffreyjwilliams]

I am looking for a "scout scope" that I can mount on my Winchester 94 30-30. My rifle is a top eject model, the scope will be fwd mounted. I have the Pearson's Picatinny sight rail. The scope will need to have extended eye relief.
When completed it will hopefully look similar to the image below.

Don't have one for sale but I recommend the vortex crossfire scout as an option. I've got one mounted on my 1895 sbl and it's with stood the recoil of my 45-70 thus far. I've put about 10-15 rounds through it.

Thanks. That is actually the one I decided to buy.

Really wanted the Leupold fx-2 but they are almost impossible to find in stainless steel or they want more than they cost new for them.

Yeah there's one forsale on ebay now, but think its gonna go for a pretty penny as they usually do.
Good luck with your search

I am thinking of doing the same thing. I'd like to hear your impressions of that mount. I'm wanting the Leupold scout I think.

Just today my mounts came in for my AE. I put a 2-7 Leupold rimfire scope on it, tiny, light and has a real fine bdc reticle, almost too fine. It looks awesome imo. Rifle shoots good too.

Leupold scout would be great if you don't mind black or matte color then you can find good prices on them. The reticle on the vortex is just right to me, pretty easy to see in low light. I actually went with some cheap Amazon mounts for mine and surprisingly they are solid.

Which Amazon mounts did you get?

I have the mount installed and now I am waiting to put on the scope. My gunsmith was impressed with the mount and it feels solid. I am hoping to get it all set up and tested soon.

I think it was these. Two pack for 20$. I've shot about 15 rounds but I haven't really beat the rifle up though because it's an 1895sbl and I'm trying to keep it looking as good as possible.

I have a high end burris 2x7 posi lock if interested

Did you get high profile? I wasn't sure which ones to get.
