Any suggestions for a scope on a Remington Speedmaster 552 with iron sights. I'm not sure if the current set up will accomodate a scope. I will be using the gun for my two older sons to learn gun handling and shooting. It will be used for paper and small game [rabbits, squirrels, etc...]. I am wanting to spend about $50 on a scope but no more than $100. Does anyone have this model of Remington with a scope? And if so what type of set up do you have? I was looking at a Bushnell rimfire 3-9x32. Any and all suggestions welcome. Thanks

The 552 was my first gun. Here is the thang... The rifle comes a part for cleaning. You break the barrel from the receiver (Where the scope is mounted) to clean. In theory you loose zero every time you clean. YMMV
Nikon has 4x for~100$ Weaver has stuff~125 I just have to question if a 50$ scope will hold up for two boys? |
