Hello,
I will have a No.1 in 44 Mag soon and I am considering options.
What optics will you use it for?
Should I use open sights?
Use:
Plinking, close range hunting.
I have a Leupold FX II 2.5x28 IER Scout scope.
I have several No.1's with 3x9x40 scopes that I mount them far enough back to not "climb the rifle".
Fast reloads are not required and I have enjoyed that set up.
I am thinking about a departure from that direction.
Close range rifle so I am thinking, open sights or low magnification scope.
Scout scope will need to be mounted forward as possible. Want to avoid rail install due to height.
Anyone have a Scout scope on their No.1?
How is it working for you?
Or, other options? Open sights?
I have a few days to ponder this issue before my rifle arrives. Lots of sales this weekend so I might make a purchase if I am convinced on a course of action.
Bill
