I picked up a nice little Sako Vixen and it came with this scope 2-7 Compact on it. I thought it was a little too much scope for calling predators but had a heck of a time finding a 1-4 that would fit it without having to use taller rings. I have put the 2-7 back on as it seems like it was just designed to work with this action. Did Leupold ever make a compact 1-4? Any other insights into this scope?

Even a Varix-II 1-4x20 looks large on this rifle and needed taller rings to mount, a Weaver V-3 wouldn't clear the bolt handle with low rings and those are the only two I could find with small ocular housings.
