Hi,
My Marlin 336 came with a fixed 4x tasco scope. It was alright, but it was heavy and bulky, and I couldn't carry the rifle at it's balance point (receiver). I played with the idea of getting Skinner, XS, Williams GRS, but I can't see them in the dark, dusk. So, I am thinking of plopping a Bushnell TRS-25 on which will be good for close-150 yard engagements on deer in forested parts of the Pacific NW. Does this sound like it would work? I feel it's a compromise between the fast handling of GRS, but you also get some of the benefits of an optic. Thoughts?
