Very nice score. If you don't go with a vintage scope, and there many good reasons to use modern optics, then I'd pick something modern that resembles period glass. The new Leupold/Redfields fit this bill. I think the new Weavers do too, especially the Classic K and V series. The only thing that I really don't like is when the scope is so big that it looks like the rifle is mounted to the scope and not the other way around. If you go vintage then I think that Lyman was turning out better optics than Weaver, with Leupold and Redfield likely topping both of those brands.
