Variable scope is OK or a 6-8X fixed.

It ate a Leupold 3.5-10X and Leupold replaced it. It is holding up OK, but I don't want to trust it on a non-resident Elk hunt.

Need a scope that will take the recoil of such a light rifle. I also want an exposed elevation turret and capped windage. Maybe 44mm objective.

Thanks
