Or would it be a nice scope if you wanted to hunt with a 1950's Model 70?
Those have cult following among those that collect vintage sporting rifles. In terms of optical quality something inexpensive like Vortex 'Diamondback' is vasty superior. If you want shockproof than sadly discontinued Nikon Monarch 'Safari' is the way to go. I suspect those glued in lenses could shake off recoil energy of .577 Tyrannosaur with ease.
