I'm thinking of getting one for my newly acquired Ruger American Compact .223 and putting it in Leupold Rifleman detachable low rings.

I'm thinking this would make a nice inexpensive beginning deer rig for my kids, plus a nice truck/fun gun for dad, plus that scope just looks like it belongs on this rifle.

Pros?

Cons?

Opinions?

Let me know what you think, thanks in advance.



I think it's a fine scope; clear and bright. Also it's not so big that it overwhelms a rifle. I have the exact scope on a Marlin 444T and it's never had any issue holding zero, even with the 265 gr Hornady loads. I've not been sorry for buying it.

"An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown
