super redhawk scope

**Keith4001r** · August 19th, 2008, 04:02 AM

Can anyone recommend a scope for a Ruger Super Redhawk in .44 Mag? I have a SRH on layaway and want to put a scope on it, but I don't know diddly- squat about scopes. I have a red dot on my GP 100, but my 51 year old eyes need some magnification at longer distances. Thanks,

PAFOA PROUD!

I put a Leupold 2.5-8X32 on mine...does the trick but a little overkill.

I've had a Bushnell 2-6x scope on my SRH for many years and am quite happy with it.

I've had a Burris 1.5-4x on mine for >15 years. Rock solid and holds up to a beating. I've gotten more buck with my Super Redhawk than I have with my rifle....so much fun. Enjoy.

I'll turn 50 next month and fully understand about the eyesight thing, LOL.

Good luck.
