WTB: Leupold M8 scope.

Looking for a Leupold M8 (2x, 2.5x, or 4x) with a post reticle for an early Ruger M44 carbine.

Thanks,

JDG

Yup,

I have a Leupold 3X post on mine.
I know, the only good that does you, is a bump back to the top!

I have a Leupold 4x Compact on mine now. Nothing wrong with the set up and it shoots pretty well, but I think that I'd like a post for a change.

Wow, not only is that a good looking set-up, but a great shooter! I did a good deal of fooling with the bedding of mine to shoot, not quite that good.
Handloads or factory?

Thank you for the kind words. I shoot these loads. These rifles definitely prefer heavier bullets.
