I've got a Bushnell Elite 3200 on my Accura. It's a great scope but has terrible eye relief for my gun. I'm thinking about putting it on a different rifle and getting a $100 scope with generous eye relief.

What scopes y'all got on your inlines?
 
Re: What Scope in on Your Inline?

I'm actually looking at a Simmons 4x32 shotgun scope. It's got plenty of eye relief and good reviews considering the price.
 
Re: What Scope in on Your Inline?

I have a Bushnell I gave $100 for with mildots that I figured out how to use as a BDC. I have a Nikon 3x9 and a Swift 3.5x10, a Red Dot and my newest is a Hawke Optics 2x7 with lighted reticle.

I love the Swift and the Hawke Optics. Swift are great scopes if you can find one. Hawke makes some amazing glass for the $ and their shotgun/ML scopes have good eye relief.

Re: What Scope in on Your Inline?

I ordered the Simmons 4x32 Shotgun scope this morning. It has surprisingly good reviews considering the brand and price point. It has long eye relief which is good since my CVA Accura has a very long buttstock.

Eabco has a good selection of scopes, like Swift, Hawke.

Re: What Scope in on Your Inline?

The original one that came on my CVA knous it seems to be a pretty good scope I don't if anyone else had any problems with theirs mine seems to be pretty good
 
I currently have a Simmons 8-point on mine. I tried to put a better scope on it but it's an Optima with a thumbhole stock and I had to pull it into my shoulder really hard and like painfully stretch my neck up on the stock to see out of it. The eye relief on the Simmons lets me use the scope like normal. I want to put better glass on it but I hate to buy a scope not knowing if I can see through it with it on the gun.

Look at specs on your score and buy better glass with same eye relief spec.

Amen. I have the original Accura before they had the quick breech plug. It requires a long eye relief to get a sight picture.

My Optima was also made before the quick release plug. I actually contacted CVA & am thinking about buying a regular stock for it. I like the thumbhole but I want better glass. I don't know if the Simmons really has that much more eye relief or if it's just longer letting you slide the scope farther back.
 
It has more eye relief. The Simmons Shotgun 4x32 was designed with more eye relief due to heavy recoil of slug guns.
 
Zeiss Conquest 1.8-5.5 is what is on my TC Encore. It's an absolute travesty that power range has been discontinued. Huge, constant eye relief throughout the power range and the optics are exceptional.
