One last concern - remember to add up each ounce of weight (56MM scope ?) and ask yourself do you want to carry that around all day in the mountains ?
That scope with an actual minimum magnification of 4.7x could be a big handicap in close cover.When a bull elk appears at 20 yards,even 3x seems like too much.
