I decided to go with a modern scope, to get the most from this rifle, something simple, maybe a fixed power Leupold??

Picking it up Saturday


There's been a lot of talk here lately about the Leupold DD's on the pre 64's. They look great and are as strong as a truck bumper. You'd probably be fine with some lows and that fixed power leupy..Weavers are also a good strong mount and won't cost as much as the DD's. If you want to spend all of your lunch money, you can opt for the S&K's or Conetrols. I generally just go with the DD's for looks, value, and ruggedness..YMMV.
