My eyes are going. I would like to put a 4x32 scope on the 30-30. I have considered Alpen, Konus, Bushnell and Sightron.
Considering this is not my primary rifle, I didn't really want to spend to much.
Any opinions on the few I have mentioned? Any others to consider?
Thanks,

Got any gun shows in your area coming up? Usually a good source for used stuff at half-decent price... I've bought used scopes at these events and not been disappointed. I guess my point here is you can probably get a good, high-end quality scope for a lot less than you'd pay new or used in a gun store. Check it out. Gun Digest magazine lists upcoming shows all across the country, when, where, etc.., near the back of the publication. I use it often.

I know that up to about 150 yards I am finding out that I am more accurate keeping my variable scopes at 5X and under. I am finding that it is easier to keep concentrated on the target. When hunting I just keep them set at 4X anyways.
