Sorry for the guys that do it... but rear mount scope on Scouts like ******....
Install a long eye relief type of FORWARD mounted scope. say 2 or 2.5x...
If you want high mag and long range target... buy another rifle.
I dont have one, but a handle one and the short barrel makes it a super fast handling set up.... a scope just puts the balance out

That's the idea.
Just struggling with going the dot option like Baldrick or a minimum 1 or 2 + magnification option.
I'd ask someone at the local range for a shot but everyone has normal scopes on them so it's no use.

It's a rough and tumble rifle. Don't over complicate it.
