[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2481613, member: 115658"] Pack along a 2nd back-up scope should the primary one fail. Same rings to fit rail. My scope recommendations might be sort of different - light weight, high quality 30mm tube scope (my max self imposed range is 400 yards, never felt underpowered with 8X) mounted so 200 yard zero is 20% from bottom of elevation range. Apprehension about spring tension & recoil near top of elevation range. Crank it up high as possible to test groups periodically - springs fail, stuff happens. Super good scopes are pricey but hunting is not a cheap sport. Zeiss makes lots of hospital instruments that I have casually observed while having my body worked on. [/QUOTE]
