I've ordered a Ruger Hawkeye Compact .308 rifle in stainless finish & laminated stock. I'm interested in getting a quality compact scope for it,preferably in a silver or stainless finish. These rifles are very short and compact so I don't want a scope that's longer than its 16.5" barrel.  I was thinking of a 2x7 or 3x9 power or something in that range. My budget is probably around the $200-600 range. Any suggestions?

| Depends on how compact you want to go. The Nikon Prostaff 3x9x40 is shorter than most 3-9 scopes. If you really want to go compact, you might consider a Weaver Classic V-Series 1x3x20. Only weighs 8.5 ounces. I'm planning on getting one and a pair of Warne QD rings for my Mini-14. |
