Good for you. The Leupold VX 3i is a great scope. Have one, myself.

All my levers wear rimfire scopes, They tend to be a little smaller and the shorter paralax setting suits the shooting I do with levers.
My BBS 327FM has a Leupold VX freedom 2-7 rimfire.

That is a slick looking set-up. That picture may have helped in my decision on my next Henry. I have the BBB in .357, scoped, I just really like the lines of the BBS. BTW, Welcome! Enjoy the forum, good crew here.

J-Rat,

Yes, I know I'm a bit late to this thread. Your Henry 357 looks great with that 2.5x8x36 scope. I have a 357 AW and I think your post may be causing my wallet to get a bit thinner. I just ordered the one piece Talley ring and base set to mount whatever scope I end up with.
