    Mines bigger! Well big is good isn't it?
    Yeah OK...'horses for courses'. My CZ455 wears a Nikko Stirling 8-24x50 for varmints (and the Grandies to shoot off the benchrest).
    The CZ457 wears a Sightron Slll 45x45 and that's about 'right'. Yeah, I'd take it out for a bunny. Certainly it is not a large, heavy scope...but could take a while to find the actual bunny in the scope picture.
    I don't feel 'over scoped' with the 8-24 Nikko though, and they are not too dear.
    Bol Tackshin and Old_School like this.
