I think you are making a good choice with the Leo vxI-2-7x33.
I had one on my Marlin 336c 30 30 but I replaced it with the vxIII-2.5-8x36.I am now thinking I want the 2-7x33 back on it.For 100 yrd shots 7 power is enough for my 59 year old eyes.The quality and power difference is not worth the price difference.
I used the Leo rifleman base and Burris Z low rings.The color of the scope is a personal choice but I like the matt for a SS gun. Pix is the vxIII-2.5x8x36
