I have 2 scopes for my Chapuis 9,3x74R double rifle. Both are in the Chapuis pivot mounts and go back to zero when taken on/off. The first is a Leupold 2.5 to 8 with the heavy duplex. I have taken game as close as 17 yards and as far 271 yards, coyote, [lazered after the shots, both the right and left shots hit him] with this scope. I really like the heavy duplex.
My PH suggested it might be a good idea to have an illuminated reticle for the leopard and lion over bait.
So I got a Swarovski 1.5-6x42 with the illuminated circle dot reticle. I really like this scope. I used it for all my plains game in Zimbabwe. My longest shot was on a Kudu at just over 300 yards.
Of all the illuminated reticle scopes I have looked at I like this reticle the best. It works great in normal light, and the illuminated feature has enough adjustment so it works when looking into shadows in daytime or when used at night.
The Swarovski is my primary scope for this rifle, I will use the Leupold for a spare.
