I just got me a new scope. Leupold VX-II 4-12x40 LR Duplex. This thing cost more than the gun itself! I can't wait to take it to the range so I can see what a quality scope can do...the scope that came mounted on my rifle is one of the <$50 Tasco 3-9x40 models. I'm sure I'll be happy with this new one.
