I'm looking for a compact scout scope (eye relief around 9") with a variable magnification of around 2-8X or fixed power somewhere in-between. Do any manufacturers offer somthing along these lines?

 

 

TIA

Thanks Stephanie

 

I was aware of the Leupold scout scope. Does SWFA carry the Burris scout scope?

 

I guess no one makes a compact variable power scout scope?

We do not carry them but we can special order it for you. The price on the Burris 2.75x20 is $234.95 if want to order it just let us know. #SO200269

I did not find a  variable scout scope. There is not a big demand on scout scopes.

I think I'm gonna hold off on the scout scope idea for a while.
