I'm thinking of trying out the Redfield 2-7X28mm with the Leupold matte DD bases and rings...the mounting length of the scope is 5.2" and I'd really rather not use the reversible front base unless absolutely required. The scope is only $150 with a lifetime warranty and coated lenses. I'm much more interested in field of view rather than overall magnification...your thoughts? This would be a pretty cheap route for just getting started. I could probably order a scope installation toolkit as well. I will have plenty of rifles and funds to upgrade in the future. I really want to do the installs myself...I'm an engineer, so I'm pretty stupid with common sense! LMAO
Good companies to order from on-line? Good toolkit for scope mounting? Thanks again.
