Handgun hunting scopes

[sw44spl]

on my 44mag SRH I have a burris 2-7 on it.

I don't care for the 2x fixed scopes. They make things look smaller to me. I prefer the 2-6(or7)x type scopes overall. I have multiple Weavers, Burris's and Bushnell 3200's on various handguns and T/C barrels. They all have held up just fine, including one on a 15" 30-06 barrel.

Leopold fixed 2 power on my 454 holds zero never had any problems in 5 years.

I've killed several deer with my M29 6 1/2" and I've always used the sights that came on the gun--no scopes. I DO always recommend scopes for any rifle hunting, tho'. I hope you can locate a scope that will fit your weapon properly.

I have the Bushnell 2-6 Trophy Hunter on my 460, works very well for me.

I've never been happy with conventional scopes on handguns, for several reasons. What I've been really happy with are variants of Aimpoint red-dots with 2x magnification and 2MOA dots. No eye relief, parallax, or light level issues, rugged design, 50,000 hour run time on the current versions, kinda turns the handgun into a laser pointer.... Pricey, to be sure, but well worth the cost, in my experience.

I had a 2x Leupold on a Super Blackhawk. It cut my groups @ 75 yards but target acquisition took to long. The scope held up well, but I no longer scope my handguns.
