I could use a little advice on long eye relief scope. I am going to experiment with the XO scout scope mount on my Winchester 1894 since I can't seem to hit accurately beyond 150 yards or so with the iron sights (rear ghost aperture).
All I have been able to find is the Burris and Leupold, but both are pretty spendy, in fact more than the rifle. I was hoping to spend less than $200, partly because I am still experimenting with the whole concept of a forward mounted scope.
I have two questions:
1. Why not a variable power scope, say 1x to 4x ?
2. Why not a pistol scope? There seems to be more variety.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks!
