Long armed guys , what long eye relief scope works - 10/16/2019 5:02 PM

I have very long arms, for those that bow hunt I have a true 32 inch draw. I am looking for a very long eye relief scope for my 44SRH. I?ve done a bunch of internet research , but would like some actual in the field use from us gorilla armed guys.

With arms that long, couldn't you just bring a knife and stab whatever it is you are hunting? Probably wouldn't even need to stand up.

X2 on the Bushnell 2-6X. It's no longer made, but some are "out there". It comes in Trophy (.44 Mag and less) and Elite (sky's the limit).

My arms are almost as long as yours. I have a 31.5 inch draw length. I have a Leupold 2x that works well. I also have three Wezver 2.5 x 8 variable that work on my contenders and one CVA Optima V2 ML pistol. The newest scope zi have is a Bushnel Trophy 2 x 6 that I put on my CVA Scout 357 mag. All of these work for me.

Redhawk out of those you listed, what scope do you think is the easiest/ fastest to get a sight picture with ?

I find the 2x Leupold the quickest to use under fifty yards.

My draw length is the same as REDHAWK1954 and the Burris 2 x 7 works well for me.

That's what I put on all my handguns. Only complaint is the eye relief changes greatly from 2.5x to 8x power. You may also find it a bit bulky, and it definitely makes the guns top heavy.
