Picked up a mint Winchester 52 "b" over the weekend. Very nice gun for a 22.... needs some glass.... I kinda want to keep with an era correct look and stick with gloss.... objective can't be to large due to the handle throw.... any suggestions? 2-7 or 3-9 nothing to fancy.... will only be really a show piece and rarely shot...... don't want to say I'm cheap but no sense in breaking the bank for one that wont get used.....$ under $250 if possible? suggestions? |

Nice gun Graham. With your stated parameters, the Leupold 4x28 gloss rimfire looks to be it.

When you are dead, you don't know you are dead.It is difficult only for others.
It is the same when you are stupid. |

I had a Model 52B---one of those Japanese ones---a few years ago. I had a Weaver 4X on it for a while and it looked very correct ( it was a Weaver MicroTrac from about 1979 ), and then I changed it and put a Redfield 6X on it....that looked good, too.
I had Browning bases with Burris Signature rings...High, I'm sure....
Send us a picture.... |

Does it have open sights?

Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

The 52 is a really nice, classic rimfire! Post pics when you get a chance!
