I need to put a scope on my 1894C. What I want is a low power, standard eye relief riflescope with a 20ish mm objective for aesthetics and as close as I can get to a plain Jane duplex reticle. And I want to spend less than $500 for it.
The Leupold FX-II Ultralight 2.5x fixed power would be perfect, but try to find one.
The Vortex Crossfire II 1-4x24 isn’t terrible, but I was trying to get a standard crosshair and not an illuminated dot.
Everything else I’ve found is either very expensive or has some tacticool reticle. I’ve got a couple of the Leupold VX Freedom 1.5-4x20 with the MOA ring reticle on ARs and that’s not what I want for my classic lever gun. The pig plex is better, but still pretty far from a standard duplex.
This place has an incredible hive mind. If what I want is out there, someone here knows about it. I appreciate any help!
