Beautiful lever action rifle!

I have the Vortex on my Rossi 92 in 45 Colt and because of the generous eye relief I'm buying another for my 7 1/2 inch Ruger Redhawk also in 45 Colt. Been shooting with Vortex for years and never a problem. Adding this nine months later. I'm buying yet another Vortex to go on my S&W Performance Center 500 mag.

Good info , I'm doing a scout scope soon on my lever gun .

awesome thanks

Watch the movie, "Wind River". 45-70 built out right. Definitely got the job done. And he reloaded his own to perfection!

I've always been a traditional lever action guy. But with ageing and diabetic eye's I could use some help. When hunting I want to make a clean kill.

Get a BIGGER GUN, That will help make up for a poor shot placement.

Hi-Lux is a great option too...

I'm from British Columbia and bought the Model 89 with scope mount and 22" barrel. I can't wait to start taking down Elk with this masterpiece!

I got the same configuration. They told me it would take 4 months to build during this pandemic. I got 2 more months to go. Feel like a kid waiting for Xmas. Also got the fiber optic front sight for better sight retention if I decide to go scopeless.

12 month wait on the 89 I just ordered today 🤔 I order the 16 in. Barrel

I've thought about a scope on my Model 89, but I have plenty of other rifles with them and will stick with the Skinner.

Sure you have "pleanty" of scoped rifles. 3 rifles doesn't equate plenty!

I' ve been thru a few, burris fixed power 2.75 I like, but on the variables, I must stick with the Leupold. the vortex had some cloudy edge going on around 6/7 [power.. you cant beat a Leupold scope for the money imo.

One of these days I'm going to throw down and get a Model 89.

I have the Vortex Crossfire 2-7 Scout Scope, and wish I purchased the Leupold.

@@bryonworthen8247 The reticle is too thick and obscures the target. There are no ballistic drop marks, so I'd be guessing on hold over. There is no illumination on the scope. The glass quality is, "ya get what ya pay for," which makes me wish I paid for more. It was then first scope I had ever purchased, so I learned a lot.

Can the Leupold fx-ii 4x28mm(part number 58760)be used as a scout scope on a Marlin 45-70 ?Thanks

What magnification were you using on the Burris scope to hit the ram at 200 yards?

Hey ummm... you mentioned the Leupold Rifleman Scout. Are you aware of something I'm not? Is this an upcoming model? How did you come into this info? You've got me very excited about it, because the VXR Scout is far and away the best general purpose rifle scope I've used (and I've used a LOT of them). It would be great to have something similar now that the VXR is discontinued.

Our guy was mistaken, it is the VX Freedom Scout scope, not the Rifleman that is now available. Thanks!

@@BigHornArmory Ah. Makes sense. The Freedom Scout has similar eye relief and nearly the same magnification. It doesn't have the VRX Fire Dot nor is the glass as high quality. I was hoping you had some inside info that an updated scope with the VXR quality was on the way. Thanks for the clarification.

Can you still see your front sight if a rail is attached to the rifle?

@mfoster442

Yes, you can definitely use the iron sights. So with quick detach rings or mounts and the scout rail you can switch back and forth between sight options as needed. It's a very good way to setup the rifle.

Hi I'd like to know the hight of the rings are they low medium or high rings thanks

Most of the rings used were mediums, but the Leupold rings were maybe high if i remember correctly.

I have the vortex on my marlin I used warne rings and had to use high rings to clear the rail.

Are these guns legal in New Jersey?

Why not make a side eject like the rest of the modern world? When I shoot a rifle I want to feel like I'm shooting a rifle and not my scoped relvover. This is a compromise that I just shouldn't have to make on a $3000 rifle.

extend your range, using cartridges, that have some range ,,
