Christmas before last I gave our older son a Marlin 30AW that was extra to me. Since then he has bought an non-working farm and wants to put a scope on it. I don't have much experience with scopes so I couldn't give him specific advice. He wants to use it to carry around the property and possibly get a shot at the occasional coyote. Not much chance that any shot would be over 100 yds.
He has other guns for deer, etc. and doesn't want a high end scope. I recommended that he look at either fixed 4X or low powered variable. Mounts, I'm completely in the dark. Any help appreciated.
