can't go wrong with anything Leupold.......my personal favorite brand of scopes

I agree with @Will Munny on getting a 3-9x......... u can't lose with that magnification (mag) if u just doing generic short to mid-range shooting

Leupold has the "Rifleman" scope for about $400 for their 50mm objective scope

I don't personally use 50mm that often but it gives u a wider view when looking at targets down range


I personally would get the cheaper 4 - 12x mag scope with the 40mm objective cuz I like shooting at longer ranges.......if u hunting u prob wouldn't go past 6-8x mag anyway just cuz it's not really ethical to shoot animals from so far away.......but if u decided to do any other distance shooting the extra mag ability is there

I would also get my scope rings from Leupold as well to avoid any issues with mounting

Yea I got my scope from academy and order my rings from leupold . This is the tag for the scope

Aight so I got my m&p10 take a little ride to the range. Mind you brand spanking new gun when I got it I broke it down cleaned it and oiled it real good. Me and my homeboy ready he got his I got mine. I run off about 10-12 of em off ummm on point no scope or nothing. How about this motherlover pin doesn't strike the bullet so I eject it next round fires off then it does it again then a double feed. Couldn't get it unjammed so I had to get the range manager out there. So i said ? if put it foam and then get my ar-15 out that boy singing like a mocking bird.

Then I grab the. 308 run like 5 rounds and pin nor striking again now it did this several times then got another double feed. Three the grip started to desperate from the lower. Called the manager ot there again he get it unjammed breaks it down looks It and the ammo I told him the ammo was cheap got 240 rounds for 93$. So he said it's a sold rifle and talked about the pin and the grip separating and basically said they probably built this gun on Friday before holiday. Told me to email em and all that good stuff I wee like yea this a brand spanking new gun though. He was like ya I've seen it happen I was like aight. That Monday I called Smith&Wesson told em what the business is they got it now.

If Smith and Wesson is anything like Benelli... be prepared to wait, and be prepared to send it back.

I've had terrible luck getting guns fixed under warranty. Its came to the point with me I just go straight to a gunsmith and be ready to fork over $90 for something stupid as ? .

Damn don't tell me that cause I have a good bit of stuff to do to it. Like I have a 3lb trigger a free floating rail with the low profile gas block and the scope and like 4 extra magazines.
