: What type of scope will you purchase for a Whisper?
: pedroeguiguren July 22, 2008, 08:15:33 AM

I am ordering a Whisper and Im turbo tunnig it. But want to change the scope and have 100 buck to spend on one. for that amount of money what scope will you buy and will it require new scope rings to fit? I have seen some leapers, seems to be really good but it is really hard to make a choice. I would realy like the scope to have a mill dot range estimating or some other type of range estimating device.

Go with Leapers Bug Buster

Thinking about the same decision.
The 3-9x32 Leapers, M392AOMDL, about $70 at optics planet.

Then, there is the 2-7x32 AO OSAR27X32 BSA scope a deal at Natchez for only $50.

Both are compact, and I'm thinking I want a compact scope on this gun. I have a 3-9x40 CenterPoint on my B-26 which is very nice, but pretty big for even the larger BAM.

I'm thinking that I rarely use any zoom setting other than the top end 9 on my CenterPoint, but the fixed settings are only 4 or 6X.
Still thinking....

IMHO, the Gamo mounts - well - suck. Look just like the cheap Accushots, but the Accushots are a quantum leap in quality over the Gamos.

Again, JMHO.

I've got a bunch of the BSA scopes(including a couple of the 2-7x32s) and think they are just the cat's meow for the price.  8)

Is the Whisper rail 11 mm?
I'm liking what I read about the Leapers 3-9, but there are a great many BSA fans.
