[QUOTE="mtngunr, post: 4333769, member: 46104"] Scopes wreck a lot of guns for me, and so the scopes I use on everything are the (I think recently and sadly discontinued) Leupold Ultra Light 2.5x (really 2.2x) which weighs less than most tube dots at 6.3ozs, where with careful choice of rings gives a low mounted scope and only 9ozs added to weight of gun and not hanging way above centerline to give top-heavy feel. Here is one on the dinky 5lb CZ Scout, it scales perfectly for rimfires, a very bright scope far superior to naked eye or peep or dot, gobs of eye relief, close focus measured in single digit paces, plenty of tube to place scope/rings just where wanted, and being a fixed power is pretty much proof against anything besides a claw hammer. A used one is just as warranted as a new one. The only thing lighter/better as for a scope is the smallest Mini ACOG, and no ACOG has an adjustable occular. And the only things lighter at all are the reflex-type dots with darker glass and less precise aim. The low magnification easily allows both eyes to be left open for situational awareness and rapid target acquisition, a favorite of those who hunt game which hunts back. And, look ma, no batteries, where if you can't find the crosshairs in this large exit pupil scope, you likely can't find the target, either.
