Hi all,

Looking for some scope advice, especially from those of you with some gray in your hair.
My dad bought himself an Axis II XP after giving me his old Savage 99. At 60, the Bushnell 3-9x40 scope his rifle came packaged with isn't cutting it. We're looking for something with a clearer sight picture and wider FOV.
Mostly the rifle is for hunting deer in dense woods. Not sure if we should go with 3-9x50, 4-12x40, or just a better 3-9x40?

Looking for recommendations, thanks in advance
