okay everybody I need scope opinions recommendations. I'm looking for scope kind of an intermediate range like a 2 to 7 power that will give me short to medium range brush gun. shops maybe from 50 yards to no more than 3 or 400 yards at the maximum but it also have to withstand a recoil of the rifle. any recommendations on a tough scope

It's difficult to make recommendations without a price range. On the lower end you could get a Leupold VX1 in 2-7 that would run a couple of hundred and get you a nice quality scope. You may be different but I wouldn't spend much more than that for a scope on a brush gun.
The model 94 i got from my dad had a redfield widefield 4X on it since 1974.
I took that scope off due to lens scratches , but that was 2 years ago.. up until that time it never lost zero.
Took deer quickly at 25 yards to 300+..Yes a 30-30.
If you set the scope at the correct length for your eye when you have the proper cheek weld you can quick draw up a rifle and get said target in the cross hairs immediately.
I have had to shoot like that on 4X with many scopes and guns..no issues with it.
When you have less than 3/4 of a second to draw up and fire scope positioning and eye relief really come into play.
For far away shots when shooting through a tiny window i have cranked my 4-16 up to 10 power.. usually do not need any more unless i am punching paper.
I have been eyeing a vortex crossfire II.. man that glass is clear..
Good luck on your quest.

Burris FFII 2-7x35, that's what I got on my 45-70.
If you don't trust anyone, trust this guy. MO knows scopes
