Thanks again, I'm usually a "lurker" here-member since '04-and am always amazed at how civil and helpful everyone is.In these conditions, Claydon Auctioneers Ltd – who act as auctioneers and agents for the vendor – are called ‘The Auctioneers’ and the representative of Claydon Auctioneers Ltd conducting the Auction is called ‘The Auctioneer’. Is that 3.1 eye relief accurate on the Weaver? Does anyone have an opinion? I'm probably going to buy the Leupold unless someone's had experience with the Weaver that says it's longer than that. The FXII 2.5 shows almost 5" of eye relief and I've always found that extra bit of relief let me get on target much faster-something to be concerned about when you're no better hunter than I am! 44? Everything else looks "right" about that particular scope except for the comparative shortness of the eye relief. Isn't that a bit tight for a gun that tosses a heavy bullet like the. Looking at the Weaver 1-3X20, it shows the eye relief at just a tick over 3".
While the Burris Fastfire is intriguing, there's just something sacrilegious in my mind about putting something that modern on a Winchester 94AE.
I especially liked the picture of the Marlin with the Sightron scope mounted on it-that really gave me a feel for how one of these smaller 20-28mm scopes will affect the 'look' of a lever gun. Thank you for all the excellent quality replies. Is there some reason that would be a bad choice based upon some else's experience? It's certainly lightweight and comparatively short, but I was wondering if anyone else had any experience that they could share. I don't want to spend over $300 so I was thinking the UltraLight series Leupold 2.5x FXII might be the right choice. I've never had a need for one of those 20mm, short scopes before, but it seems like the right fit for this gun. It changes the handling of the gun too much. I had a 3x9x40 Burris on the shelf of the gun cabinet and mounted it on Leupold mounts, but I tell ya', it's just too long and adds too much weight. It's a great handling gun and Indiana now allows. The 94AE is a "Trapper" style, 1999 vintage, straight gripped version with the big lever loop. I need glass because I'm old enough to wear spectacles for more than just reading. I know there are folks out there who are going to suggest an aperture sight and while I appreciate the 'purity' of an aperture, I'm just not a fan. 44 magnum that I can't seem to shoot well at 50 yards with iron sights.
