    The TAC A1 isnt really the type of gun you would be walking around with and shooting off-hand, its more the sort of thing that would mostly only be shot prone, or with a good rest.
    A TAC A1 would usually get a bigger more tactical style scope, as opposed to some of the smaller, lighter, more carry-around hunting rifle type of stuff that has been suggested here, as usually it would almost only ever be shot prone, so a big heavy high magnification scope is usually the choice for such a piece.

    I guess you really need to decide what you want to do, walk around hunting, or more long range / target shooting type stuff. If walk around hunting, well tbh, you've chosen the wrong gun, but should probably get a smaller lighter scope to keep the package weight slightly manageable. If you want something that's actually a good match for that gun, then ideally you want something with a 30+ mm tube, can dial accurately, and more than 15x magnification on the upper end, imo.
