Hi All -
I just picked up a Ruger Frontier in .308, and I'd like some advice on a scope. I intend to use the forward 'scout' mounts. The Leupold Scout scope seems like a good choice, but is a 2.5x fixed power. Ideally I'd like a variable, in the range of 1-4x or 2-6x. Pistol scopes seem to be the only option.
Is there a problem with mounting them to close vs. the longer distance of a typical pistol?
Any makers to look to or avoid? Ideally I'd like to stay close to $200, with $300 as the upper limit.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
