The Scout scope movement seems to have slowed to the point of non-discussion.

With a Mini - IMHO, the factory scope mounts work for most owners, so not a huge need to spend another $150+ on a mount, and more dollars on a EER scope. YMMV.

Plus, with the expansion of affordable red dots, scout scopes have lost even more ground.

I don't disagree that the discussion is interesting, but not that many followers on here that I've seen. JMHO
