Default Which Scope For Pre-64 Model 70? Gloss? Which Sling?
I have an excellent condition Pre-64 (1959) Winchester Model 70 Featherweight in 30-06 that I need to scope and equip with a sling.

I’m going to put a new manufacture scope and sling on it, but would like it to look period correct to some degree.

I’m assuming Gloss scopes were dreggier of the day?
I like Leopold scopes and am leaning towards this 6X fixed power scope.
Leupold FX-3 Rifle Scope 6x 42mm Duplex Reticle Gloss - MidwayUSA

Maybe with the LR Duplex?


Any ideas on Gloss VS Matte scope, and a nice sling appreciated.
