3-9x40 will do you just fine.

I like Nikon they have great lenses at a realatively reasonable price.

You can't beat the Nikon ProStaff 3-9x40mm for under $150.00.

Any scope of decent quality in 2-7 or 3-9 power range will let you take advantage of the improved ballistics of that cartridge. You will probably want to stay with a 40mm objective lens or smaller to eliminate having to use high mounts which in turn will get your cheek up off the stock. My favorite would be a Leupold VXII in
2-7 X 33. The same type scope in the Fulfield line by Burris would also be good and a bit cheaper.

rrmont, to answer your question I think he is talking about the power of the scope.

[Christian Emter]

Nikon or Bushnell. 3-9 power

[rrmont]
