So long as I can hit roos and goats in the right place out to 150-200m I'll be chuffed.

    It was very pleasant to shoot - 125gr handloads were doing about 2740.
    Greetings Pommy,
    You probably don't need a scope, just a larger aiming mark. Something that you can centre the sight dot in. In the field you would centre the dot on the chest so no need to burden the rifle with a scope. This allows you to carry some spare ammo in charger clips if you can find some. This would add some more Rambo cred. Excellent, Sometimes it is not just about the hunting which I think you already know.
    Regards a jealous Grandpamac.
