Yesterday I put a brand spankin' new Marlin 983S on layaway (there is a gun show coming up so I didn't want to spend all of my cash.) For those who don't know, the 983S is a stainless 22 magnum with a 12 round magazine tube, synthetic stock, and a few other little differences. I've been considering a 22 mag for over a year, and decided this is what I wanted.
It seems the factory open sights are adequate, so I intend to use them for a while. Eventually I'll install a scope, so my mind is already turning. I would like to keep it under $200 if possible so I'm looking for suggestions.
Optics Planet has a Sightron S1 3-9X40 in silver on sale for $130. I've looked at these in person and found them to be surprisingly good. Thoughts?
Any other recommendations?
