I appreciate the information and suggestions. I have my mind set on saving money for a new lightweight, short-action, big-game rifle. Without having given it a whole lot of thought, I was thinking along the lines of scoping it with a Leupold 2.5-8x36 or a 6x36.
The SWFA SS and Leupold 6x42 would be in my price range, too. I'll keep reading and learning in the meantime....
