    Alright well I've done it now! Settled on a Leupold VX5-HD 3-15x44 Firedot. Took it for it's first walk yesterday evening and it seems very nicely balanced on the rifle. Glad I didn't go any heavier, despite the fact it would have saved some money. I've also managed to do ok at the range. Was getting some nice groups when zeroing at 100 and am able to hit 600 without too much trouble, even with no reticle markers for wind hold.

    Good on you. you've gone for the safe approach which I doubt you will ever regret.
