If Swaro is in your price range, it is hard to go wrong with one of the Z3 scopes on a lightweight gun like that.

ILya, Do you know if SWFA is still pursuing a mill quad reticle in the ultralight?

I’ve got a VX3 2.5-8x36 on an 84M Roberts, and VX3i 3.5-10x40s on a pair of 84Ls in 280 AI and 30-06 all in Talley LW Lows. For me, the Talleys are perfect.

Ive got a Leupold 2.5-8x36 on an 84M classic 308, Kahles AH 3-9x42 TDS on a 84M 257 Roberts Classic Select, and a Leupold 3.5-10x40 with B&C reticle on an 84M 260 Rem Montana. Out of all, I prefer the Kahles the best. All are mounted in Talley Lightweight lows.
Oh, and believe it or not, deer bite. Fairly hard.

I’ve got that 2.5-8x36 leupy that I suspect deserves a home. If you had to choose a reticle, what would it be?
Mines the duplex and I’m thinking something with hashmarks might be helpful for longer range antelope or deer or target fun.
Thanks

If you want holdovers, I'd look at the Trijicon AccuPower 3-9 in with a Mil-Square reticle. I have 3 of them and they are great hunting scopes. https://www.sportoptics.com/trijicon-accupower-1900011.aspx

Jon, send it to Leupold and have a B&C reticle installed. I've got a couple of those, great scopes and ideal for the rifle.

I've got a meopro 3.5-10x44 on the exact same rifle and I like it.
I was wanting to keep the objective in the 38-36 range but I also wanted the illuminated dot so thats what pushed me to the Meopta.
If I didn't have the meopro I think i'd either have the Maven 2-10x38 or the SWFA 2.5-10x32
