Next year I'm going to be spending a lot more time shooting. First year back after a long time and I spent so much time in load development for my 45-70 gg this year with a new powder (AA 5744, now) v. (IMR 4198, 2016) and cast bullet (Accurate 46-405VG, now) v. (46-425Q, 2016) that I rather stupidly am only finding out now how much my offhand 100 yard shooting has declined over the years with age and a progressive neuro condition. I'm hitting about 1.5 moa at the bench, 2 moa kneeling with a rest, 3 moa standing against a rest (e.g., shooting lane post, leaning up against it, trying to emulate a tree or something like that, for a quick woods shot), and offhand - forget it. Terrible. Working as much as possible with dry firing, recovering fundamentals, etc. But VERY late in the game and so the range of ethical shots I'm willing to take has been curtailed quite a bit.
So - next year, I'll be acquiring a Henry and wanting to scope it, much as that drives me nuts. I've accepted scoping the lever and scope my gg with a 2.5 x 20, so looking for a good rimfire with low profile that marries well to the Henry and it's 3/8" groove mounting rail.
Looking for as cheap as possible that will do the job in easygoing squirrel woods. Not "cheap" cheap and lousy, but neither am I looking for the same quality I'd like on my centerfire big game rifles. Thoughts?
