This is exactly the one you are talking about. I love it. I hunt with Barnes Expander sabots with 85 grs. of 2f and practise with a R.E.A.L conical and she shoots just wonderful. This is why I put this high dollar scope on her.

If/when i find one, im just going to get a peep that i can remove the aperture and use it as a ghost ring type. Ive seen them before at Cabelas and they really are "purdy" in person and i like a recoil pad. I came close to getting one when i wanted a new 54cal but i fell in love with the GMB54 and it was cheaper.
They are very unique though. You dont see many traditional styled 54s with a 1-24.

Hey BP, how's it going pal. Take a visit over to this site:
http://www.leatherwoodoptics.com/ind...d=37&Itemid=37
The scopes they put out come in three lengths, 17", 18" and 32". 17" is the one I have in 3x. The 18" comes in 6x. I figure I was going to be hunting in the think woods of Virginia and 3x would be just fine. Most of the scopes I use for hunting are in 2.5x.
I have another Malcolm style scope that was made by Tasco years ago and is all brass. I will be putting it on my H&R 1871 rifle. I will post that one when it is done.

You gonna get sick of hearing what kind of scope is that!
It's nice and sure adds some ol time class to your MLer.
