I just picked up a CVA Scout single shot in .300 BLK that will be a short range, suppressor host for hunting. Max range will be 75-100yds, probably more like 50.
I'm looking for something lightweight, with CLEAR optics, and would be great if it had an illuminated reticle. No fancy reticles, a duplex-type is preferred.
What would you recommend?

Budget? Low light hunting? Budget is flexible (let's just say $1000-1500 or less) and yes, shots will likely be in low light situations down in the swamps.

Kahles is so bright it is damn near night vision. I own 6... I am always on the hunt for more. Lower the power the better IMHO. I will hunt/shoot 400-500 yards with a 1.5x - 6x 30mm tubed Kahles. To each his own...
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

A 1.5-4 would be ideal but nearly all have 20mm objectives. Small objective = not good for low light.
I have found that when shouldering for a close range shot you wind up pointing right on target. You might consider this:
Zeiss Conquest 4x32 MC 50yd Parallax Rifle Scope
Find a used one, they are out there.

Hawke 1-4
Bullet proof. Decent optics
Budget not an issue, get the Vortex Razor Gen 3 1-10

Hawke optics are innovative and great bang for the buck but it will be a cold day in hell when I mount a made in china anything on my rifle.
