8mm RUM
05-09-2021, 03:52 PM
She is 12, and shoots a fair amount, but not an avid shooter, or hunter. She does like to shoot P dogs and coyotes.
She has eyes like her uncle, my son, and can see forever.
I'm getting into her gun fairly cheap about $550.
I still need a claw sling, Limbsaver, scope bases and rings, and a scope.
SO what should I do for a scope, she has no idea scope #1 to scope #5, so it will be up to me to get something she can use and keep for a time without upgrading and not break old Papa's wallet.
I have a Burris that I like on my 8mm, the rest of my guns have Redfield or Leopold's. A little more than I want to spend on here first.
At Amazon, I can get a Burris droptine for 160 bucks.

And at Amazon, I can get a Vortex very similar for the same price.

Of those two what would be your choice?
Or similar at the same price point.
