    I didn't like the 4x on the new BP so I bought a 3x9 x50 and put it on the 50 cal. I put the 4x on the 45 cal CVA . bore sighted now to put it on the sled and see what they will do?

    Emcm2 I already bought a 3x9x50, but If I ever find a 30/30 I like I might need it, What do you want for it some one on here might need it?

    Just be sure that you have enough eye relief. I like a scope that gives 4 inches of eye relief, so that it doesn't hit me. My bp rifle comes back further, in recoil, than my 308.
