708.0. "need a scope for a 44mag pistol?" by CXCAD::COLECCHI () Sun Jul 29 1990 18:06

       

    
    I need to purchase a scope for my 44mag. Do any of you fellow noters
    have any recommendations? What make will withstand the recoil.
    What field of view should I get. What magnification should I get.
    I don't expect to take a shot beyond a 100yds. I need to get one
    soon so I can get alot of parctice in before the season starts.
    I got my doe tag last week.
    
    What kind of loads do you handgun hunters use on doe? Should I consider
    something other than 240gr JHP bullets?
    
    Thanks,
    JC

708.1Might have what you needROULET::WIINIKKAMon Jul 30 1990 09:4114
    Hello JC,
    
         I think I just might have what you're looking for.  I have
    a Burris 2X Pistol Scope that I used to use on my Ruger SBH. If
    you have a Ruger SBH I will sell you the mount I had also.  The
    mount is made by Williams and required no drilling to install.
    It's one of the types that clamp to the barrle.  I'm asking $100
    for the Scope and Mount and $80 for the Scope alone.  I currently
    live in Taxachusetts and would ask that you pay for shipping if
    you are lucky enough to live in another state.  If you are interested
    you can best reach me by mail at SCOMAN::WIINIKKA as I am seldom
    in my office.
    
                               Good luck filling your doe tag...Scot
