RE: NIKON PROSTAFF
corey,you know everyone that I talk to on here almost has different and mixed opinions on scopes,personally if hunting whitetails I would not shoot a compact scope and the reason for that is the light it draws,the bigger the objective lens which I would not go over 50mm,you take a 40mm and a 50mm in the same scope,and you will have 5 to 15 minutes of extra light where you can see with the 50mm go to gander mt. and check it out for your self,have them take you outside so your not looking through the window do this in the last 20 minutes of light you will be shocked,and I shot my largest whitetail the last 5 minutes of light,the first ten and the last ten minutes is when I want to be able to see clear the best,people will tell you a 50mm will be mounted to high on the gun mine worked just fine,I work for Hughes Builders Inc. and my bosses all have game rooms and there full of animals,and if you asked them what to shoot they all have 50mm on there hunting guns,there not just your average hunter they go all over the world and they proved to me what works best,thats why I will go with a 50mm for hunting,if I was gonna shoot at the range I could save some money and shoot a 40mm,and that's just my opinion nothing else..........Ted

I am planning to use an sks as a back up, the shells fly up and to the right, so you eather have to have a compact scope or full size with a shell deflector. I like am going to the full size w/shell deflector, by the time I find a compact that would work it is going to cost as much as full size w/shell deflector and for replacing a full is easier then a compact.
sorry, I add what I was planning to and the compact comment, that is what happens when I thinking too much.[&:]
