... Of course a Scout scope is a compromise, what scope ISN'T a compromise? ...
1. Leupold 3.5-10x40 w/ standard duplex & at least an elevation turret
2. Leupold fixed 6x w/ same as above
that's just a start ...
In my experience, ANY scope with a turret is a compromise. Sure, they make for easy adjustment, but being drug out of and crammed into a saddle scabbard, or used as a support while climbing a mountain, those damned things are just begging to be knocked off. Plus the added weight of big scopes like that make trapsing around a 10,000 ft. even more difficult. Of course if they're just sitting in the gun safe while the owner pecks away at a keyboard, they're perfect.
But, if you like them and they work for you, then more power to you.
