I need a pistol scope ?

oppsImissed · Sep 20, 2018

For some reason I have decided to start playing around with my Colt Python. I've always hated wheel guns, so I'm gonna try to like it. The factory hardwood grips are uncomfy. I just ordered Pacmyer grips and a scope mount. What's a entry level scope that would be ok on a 357 magnum with 4 inch barrel? I have no idea what I'm getting Into. Pics of your set up would help alot. I ordered a stainless no drill mount. I guess I'd rather a scope that matches the nickle finish. Help !?!?!?!

You hate wheel guns and yet own a Python.

I'm confused.

Leupold M8-2X is one that has served me well.
4X on a handgun shows how unsteady I am.

I'm 43. This is the first wheel gun I've ever owned. It was part of a package deal I bought 6 months ago in Texas. Only other revolvers I ever shot were my Dads service revolver. Just want for me. I've shot the python a few times. Just want to see what it will do scooped.

Well you own probably the best production revolver ever manufactured. I owned a couple of them in a previous life. I'd pass it on to my son/daughter if i was you.

I thought I was making progress. The new Pacmyer grips feel great. But the scope mount doesnt fit. Says it's for a Diamondback or Python. Seems to be about 1/4 inch too short. Dont know if I should mill the tabs on the mount? Or shop around for a new mount. Seller has a no return policy.
