I am looking for a scope for my son. Looking for MAX eye relief. Circle plex or turkey plex reticle. Magnification doesn't matter. Leupold doesn't make the scope I use anymore. No red dot speed bead stuff. A real scope. Any ideas?
You MIGHT still be able to find a good USED scope like you're wanting.Spurhunter":2zuijito said:Leupold doesn't make the scope I use anymore. No red dot speed bead stuff. A real scope. Any ideas?
I have heard good things about them. Can you send me a pic and model number in a pm with price. I want to research the specs. Very interested.Gravey":2rugl98k said:I have a Pentax Lightseeker that was on the 870 I sold that I might part with if interested.

Your recommendation is what put me on it.scn":99r4bh43 said:Another vote for the Pentax Lightseeker. I have used one for years, and it has been great!
I liked the looks of these and liked the 4" of eye relief but wasn't sure how durable they could be for $60.Tennessee Lead":208sdzsz said:I have zero complaints from The Simmons Pro Diamond

My Brother has had his for several years shooting 3&1/2" loads without any problems.Spurhunter":uctojkui said:I liked the looks of these and liked the 4" of eye relief but wasn't sure how durable they could be for $60.Tennessee Lead":uctojkui said:I have zero complaints from The Simmons Pro Diamond

I shouldn't judge them because I've never used one but I'm just nervous about anything with a battery. Murphy's law.Southern Sportsman":2q6yh9ir said:You opposed to a reflex sight? I've got a Burris FF2 and FF3 and love them. Vortex Venom is also very popular. Great for kids. Eye relief is a non-issue. They mount lower than a traditional scopes so head position is better. And if the dot is on the target that's where it will hit even head or body position is less than optimal.
Edit - just saw the "no red dot" part of your post. But the good ones are nice.
