I just got my new SRH in 454 Casull today and want to get the best scope for my hunting needs looking at the fixed 4x26 and th 1.5-4x20 most hunting done in hardwoods and small fields 150yrd shot max give me some advice out there.
Ok went surfing to a few other sources and just ordered the burris 1.5-4x20 with posi lok think this will give best of both worlds what you guys think. can wait to fire that SRH 454.
I have a SRH in 480 and I put a 4X leupold on it. It took a little practice to get fast target acquisition. I have taken 3 deer with the 480 so far. I like the 4X when I'm out hunting charlies or doing load developmant at the range. A 2X scope would be a little quicker and easier to get on target.
Burris scopes are excellent and would hold up well to the 454. I guess the 1.5 to 4 would be a good scope to start with. You could practice with it on 1 or 2 power and as your skills increase you can turn the power up. 4X works good for the shots out at 100 yards.
