Thread: Optics on single shot rifles e.g Merkel / k95

Hi TT , thanks for your comment on scopes for the k95, you are pretty much on the mark with what I've been thinking of going for the new model VX3 HD 3.5-10 × 40.
I have swarovski 3- 10 x42 on another rifle and its great but doesn't have bt for those longer shots which is a shame as it would be perfect so the Leopold was the next best I thought. The Z5 2.4 - 12 x50 is a contender but I was of the same opinion as you that it looks slightly out of place on these lightweight rifles, I need to see one to compare it with the Leopold . Also interested in your comments regarding the suppressor and barrel chop. I've purposely left mine at the factory length before I decide on the suppressor option, so some good information from you on everything I have been going over , thanks. I was surprised at your comment on what you would choose if you did this again regarding caliber, suppressor, barrel length, and load ,all good information and considerations that I've been going over in my mind to get it right with a pricey weapon like the k95.
Cheers
