Pygmy Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 One of my hunting buddies hunts whitetails with a Rem M 7 S/S in 7mm08. He loves the little rifle and currently has a 2x7 Leupy VX-II on it... He wants a little more magnification to help him deal with PA antler restrictions, but he doesn't want to ruin the nice handling qualities of his rifle by saddling it with a full size 3x9x40MM variable... Any suggestions for a quality compact 3x9 ? He doesn't want junk and he's willing to pay for quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawdwaz Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) Leupold VX 2 Ultralight 3-98.8 oz (WRONG!) I was incorrect on the weight, it is 9.3 oz. Edited January 1, 2015 by Lawdwaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Very fond of my Bushnell 3 x 9 x 30 Elite 3200 with Firefly on my ML. Wasn't expensive but nor cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntOrBeHunted Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Nikon Buckmaster. Nice scope for a good price I run with a few of them have had 0 problems ever. I also have a pro-staff and it to is nice. Specs on both are very much the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawdwaz Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 At 9.3 ounces it should be a dream! What is he putting it on?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
