Thanks Randall!Jack, Dillon is correct. This is a backyard friendly gun. I shoot out of a metal building, so the sound reverberates within it. That makes it easy to assess, and it is similar to a Marauder. The Standard and Short sure do look good with the DonnyFL hardware out there on the end! I would think the Long would look front-heavy with one though. Dave, I am using the Hawke Sidewinder off my SynRod, 8-32X50. WAY too long of scope unless you are just going to do benchrest. That's all I use the gun for. Looks kinda' weird too. I wish there was a smaller 8-32x scope out there. I'd sure give one a try. About the only one I know of is the Athlon Argos BTR, and it is only slightly smaller in 32X, but their 12, 14, and 24 power BTR FFP and SFP scopes are perfect for this gun. DairyBoy has found some new scopes he likes, I forgot the name of them. Ask him. i am sure intrigued by them. My eyes need 32X, and no less than 24X.Hunting? I'd mount a 12x or 14x on it and get in the woods with it. My only beef with the Long: Trying to come up with a way to put a single point suspension point on it to be able to walk the woods AR-style. Everything I keep coming up with, the darn thing keeps smacking me in the crotch. The way this thing is designed, the way its weight is distributed, it wants to rest against me there. I crave intimacy, but...
