Thread: 30-06 scope

Hi trying to get a guage on a scope for my 30 odd PH safari not looking at long distance but want something mid range and some ideas. cheers b

I have a zeiss terra 3x 3-9@42mm for sale.

yip 3x9x40mm of some sort...leupold vx1 would do job just fine n dandy.

2-10 VX5 or 2.5-8 VX3i

A fixed 4 power would be more in keeping with the rifle

I've had Burris signature 3-10 on mine for a time and its been well used and trouble free.
A second hand one would be fairly cheep.

If you want it to be period correct scope, look for an older Kahles - 4x, 2-7, 3-9. Or as Mikee suggested, a VX5 2-10

Or a k4 weaver steel tube with post and wire reticle

Jeez how long is a piece of string? Get one with a lookin peeper thing at the back that doesn’t smack you in the eye, a aimy thing at the front that helps you hit the target and a grow bigger/smaller adjustment can also be handy.

@Rushy I'm sure there are a few around that would like one of those

It has/had a what im guessing is a 1970's 4x32 Miroku, it seems ok but a little hard to get a clear pic, seems a bit foggy.. so yeah just getting a feel of some of you wiser and more experienced heads. cheers all for your view points and just to clarify is the piece of string used as a measure for distance?? i take it.
