Hey guys how do u all feel about the 2-7x32 Black Extended Eye Relief Scout Scope Ncstar or should i get the 4x32 Black Electronic Ncstar, this is for a low budget 91/30 hunting/shooting rifle so i am not looking for $200 over scope, just something cheap that will get the job done.

I had only one Ncstar scope, regular rifle type, 4X. The optics were really bad.

You don't say what weapon you're you're using with the scope. There's a difference between a "scout" and a pistol scope. The Scout scope usually has eye relief in the 9-12 inch range (IER) and a pistol scope has more eye relief (EER).

For a scout scope I love the Leupold Scout, and its close to your price range. Its a 2.5 x fixed power, with nice optics and is light in weight. I've also heard great things about the Burris Scout, 2.75 x. Variables are heavier and more expensive for the same optical quality.

it is for a 91/30 i was told to go with a pistol scope since it has a longer eye relief, so lay it on me what should i get.

If you followed the link to the older thread, you'd see a fair discussion regarding the attributes of various pistol scopes and the two available scout scopes (Burris and Leupold).

For what it's worth - a search in this forum for 'scout scope' will yield a ton of feedback for ya....
