All I can say in the scope department is of the scopes I use...

The Nikon Omega 3-9x40mm is an excellent scope with excellent eye relief. You will appreciate that eye relief the first time you get sloppy with your hold and the scope decides to remind you to behave. My Remington Genesis loves this scope. This scope was on sale one day, and I really did not need it. But after hearing all the good reviews from forum members, like Lee, I bought it. I have never regretted the purchase.

The Nikon Pro Staff 2-7x32mm - do not under estimate this scope. If your shots are under 150 yards, this scope will handle it with ease. I know the 32mm thing scares off a lot of people. It attracted me. You get excellent light gathering, and the Pro Staff I believe handles 92% of transmitted light. Which is excellent. This scope was recommended to me by a competition rifle shooter who owns a gun shop. He could have sold me a more expensive scope, but I doubt a better one.

Bushnell Elite 3200 2-7x32mm is an awesome scope. Again, I went to the 32mm model. I do not take snap shots, and most my shots are those last few minutes of the day. So the light transmission of this scope is 92% I was told. This thing at the end of the day really draws light. Mine has the firefly. In a way that is nice, but then in another way, with the FAT cross hairs it can be a PITA. I do not think I would go the firefly route again, but I would the scope. The optics are excellent. The way the scope functions such as changing powers and dialing in the parallax are superb to say the least. I went with this one because it was on sale, and Batchief and Sabotloader recommended it to me when I told them I was thinking about it. Those guys know their stuff. And that was good enough for me. I mounted that scope on a White .451 and I dare anything to walk out 150 yards or less with it.

Those are three of my top of the line scopes that I would recommend for your rifle. All of them IMO will serve you well.
