That’s a great scope dvb. 1-4x is not quite enough. I run a 2-7 Sig on my .30-30 and a 1-4x on my .44 Mag.

Been looking at skinner 1-6 scope.
I did a bit of looking at this Skinner scope, and frankly, it is exactly what I’m after for my .30-30 Marlin. Of course I just put the Sig on it a year ago, so likely won’t change it this year, but a 1-6x with illuminated dot is exactly what I wanted. Hopefully someone here gets one to review soon!

Im a big fan of rimfire designated scopes on lever actions.
The shorter parallax settings and the fact they are usually a bit more compact makes them perfectly suited.
Most scope manufactures make designated rimfire scopes, carry the same warranty made just as tough just with features making them better suited for shorter range use.
Leupold and Sightron on most of mine but a couple from lesser known manufacturers.
