I need a new scope for my slug gun. It's a mossberg 835 with a rifled cantilever barrel. It currently has a crap bushnell sportsman 1.5-4.5, and I am convinced that it actually makes stuff smaller when I look through it. Also, I don't like relying on $40 optics for deer hunting. Anyone use a 3-9x40 on a slug gun? I'm on a tight budget and would prefer a nikon prostaff 2-7x32, but I have a leupold rifleman 3-9x40 on a rifle that I could pull and put on my slug gun for the season. Also, there are a lot more used 3-9x40 scopes on eBay than 2-7s if I do decide to pick something up. If anyone has a pic of a 3-9x40 on a slug gun I'd like to see it. I feel like a 40mm objective scope might look a bit out of place, but I'm not sure. Thanks for your help.
Also, I think the rifleman and most 3-9x scopes come with parallax adjusted for 100 yards, how would this effect a 50 or even 25 yard shot?
