My dad gave me his rifle a couple years ago. It's a K98 he brought back from WW-II and had sporterized in the 1950's by putting a very nice Monte Carlo stock on it, muzzle brake, reblued, bolt jewelled and some engraving work on the magazine floor plate. He never actually hunted with it, and it was more of a trophy than anything, despite the sporterized look. He had it drilled and Weaver mounts installed for a scope, the bolt handle adjusted to acommidate the scope etc. Well after 50 years, the old scope has had age catch up to it. It was probably a mid grade scope to begin with, simple cross hairs. Over time it has become "fuzzy" to look through. I have no idea if it was ever adjusted or zero-ed.
I would like to replace the scope so. Can anyone recommend a decent scope that isn't super expensive but will be good for hunting. I would prefer something in a blued finished over a matte finish, so it matches the rifle blue. Probably in the $100-200 range.
