I am looking for a scope for whitetail hunting. My only experience with pistol scopes has been a 2x and a 2-? variable Leupold. I liked the 2x, but the field of view on the variable was to narrow for my liking. |

I've used a Burris 2-7 for a couple of years on my .454 Casull and on .45 Colt. No problems at all. Mine is not Posi-lock, so I'd recommend saving that money. I switched from a Burris 2X because the 2-7 gathers a lot more light. It's not very usable over 5x because the exit pupil gets very small and eye relief gets too short for holding. I can't help you with mounts for your gun. I shoot freedom arms.

I have a 2X Burris on a 35 Rem T/C and it came with posi-lock on a special deal. Ironically, when I had it on a 44 Mag barrel, it was the posi-lock feature that broke. Burris fixed it and it has been fine ever since. I would probably not spend any extra $ on the posi lock as I do not like messing with it each time i want to change the setting. ( I play with a number of T/C barrels and move scopes around a bit.) In addition, the majority of the opinions I have read on this forum since I joined is to the effect that the Burris scopes hold zero well without that feature.
