Which Barrels did you get with the gun and is it a Youth Gun or the regular full size gun?
I got the 3 barrel combo that came with 1 free Weaver scope mountand the gun has a .243 barrel,the 22LR barrel and the 20 Gauge shotgun barrel.Since my 2 Daughter'sare going to be using the gun I put a Tru-Glo Red Dot scope on the .243 barrel and I bought another Weaver mount and put another Tru-Glo Red Dot scope on the 22LR barrel,the 20 Gauge Shotgun has the gold color bead on the end of the barrel so I left it without any scope because it will be used for Turkey Season mostly.I let my Girls practice with the 22 LR & Red Dot scope for a while and will probably let them do a little squirrel hunting with it too,then I put the .243 barrel on and my oldest Daughter has been Deer Hunting with it.She shoot a nice Doe last year with it but missed a bigger Doe this past Youth Season because she got pretty nervous/shakes!

I think you could put a decent scope like a BSA,Bushnell or Leupold scope on one of them to hunt with?I've noticed several Hunting Shows that had Youths hunting on them and they were using Rossi guns with Leupold scopes.As my girls get older I may try a better scope but for right now I don't want them shooting far out at a deer and the Red Dot scopes are easier for them to see through and aim with.I have seen better Red Dot scopes that have 2 to 3 time magnification which would be even better yet,Millet has a more expensive and better quality Red Dot's and Tru-Glo has come out with a few more styles of Red Dot scopes too.
