Help me out guys. I see the vortex diamondback is aailable (in Canada) for $200 with a 2-7x mag sounds good but it is a bit heavy for what I wanna do with this. Its a cz 452 american for bunny hunting and shooting targets n steel. (not competition or anytthing at all) so a 35 objective is max, lighter is better. 


Help me out folks!

  There are other brands of 2X to 7X rimfire scopes out there but of the ones I checked on(Leupold,Weaver,Nikon) none had near the fov of the Vortex if that matters. One thing to keep in mind. I just finished mounting a 2-7x32 Viper on my Marlin 883 .22mag and I can just BARELY remove the bolt due to the diameter of the object end.

Welcome to Optics Talk.

I have a CZ 452 Trainer. Went with the Weaver 2-7x that Earl mentioned. I really like it. Good clearence for the CZ's high bolt lift too.



 
If at first you don't secede...try..try again.
