The Simmons definitely looks better, but a 2x7 Leupold would look better still.
I have a 2x7 Loopy on my Browning 1885 45-70. Great Scope. It's 11" long. I almost switched it to the X7. The Simmons is 9 1/2 inches.
EDIT: How the heck did you put that on MY gun
UC??? It seems to me that you have to send me that scope now.
