Default RE: scopes

well it all depends on the terrain, distances, game, and well your prefernece. If you were primarily hunting whitetail at minimal ranges out to 100 yds or less id suggest a fixed power scope, this good for quik spotting,and wide field of views.next would be a 2.5-10 40mm or 3-9 40mm, theese are both good scopes,personally in my opinion if it was minimal to moderate ranges say 50 yds to 150 id choose a wide field of view such as a 50mm with a adjustable objective. 3-9 50 mm would be perfect. For your price ranges i dont no how much you want to spend but either a tasco or bushnell, maybe a bsa would be good choices for a reliable cheaper priced scope, remember that price doesnt always mean quality. i have a 3-9 40 mm tasco scope on my cva it does fine for my terrain and hunting i do.glad i could be of help.

I have a Nikon 4X12AO on my Encore. When I went to buy a scope my intentions were to go w/ 3X9 and I found this on sale. Really like the ability to turn up the power. I leave it on 4 almost all the time, but when it comes to sizing racks, making sure a doe is not a spike, trying to pick out that patch of fur between the trees, or just getting eyeball to eyeball with that squirrel that has been bugging me, I really like being able to turn up the power. I would'nt go back to a 3X9, but that is just my preference.
