Well, I picked up a Nikon Prostaff 4-12x40 in a Matt finish for $149.00. I just put it on the Voere. Depending on where you are hunting in Washington, you can have 200-300 yard shots or maybe on 50 yards which is why I went with a variable power scope.

I agree that it is easy to over-scope. I will put the 4X Bushnell that came with the Voere on the Mauser. I need to take the Mauser into the store to identify the mounts for sure so I can get the right rings.

The Savage came with a 4X. One of my concerns was to make sure that if I am teaching my grandson to shoot and hunt that we similarly armed.
