Well, I finally got the scope mounted this weekend. Here's my 94AE .44 Mag w/Leupold VX-1. I'm thinking I may need to swap out the rings to low so I can get my head down a little more on it. And it looks a little goofy sitting so high on the skinny action of the 94.

I think that looks great any way you slice it! Pretty gun.

Bringing this thread back to life. I just purchased my second remington 870 but, this one has the cantilever barrel. It was a crazy deal at Dicks on clearance and took an additional 20% off. Anyways...I'm in need of a nice scope for it. Recommendations? My budget is between the $150-$200 range. I have looked at the leupold vx1 and its topping my price range. Also, I am looking at the Nikon prostaff for under $150.

The new model VX-1 is the old model VX-II's, never had any problems with either even on my hot loaded Ruger No.1 in 45-70 and its quite a kicker!

I put a prostaff 2x7x32 without the bdc reticule on my 870 couple years ago. Good scope for the price with a no fault policy.

I've recently put a VX-1 on my Winchester .44 but haven't sighted it in yet. I've had 2 Nikon Prostaffs in the past on deer rifles and have no complaints about them either, like you said apples & oranges.
