Buddy on another forum has the same scope on his 1895 Guide Gun with stout handloads and it has never let him down. For the money, Burris Fullfield II is the only way to go, sometimes you can catch them on sale for a bit more than a c-note. I honestly think they are better scopes than anything that costs less than a Leupold VX-3. Unfortunately they only come in a couple of different versions, none of which are compact.
