Illuminated Rifle
Best scope for scout rifle?

I have a Savage scout rifle in .308 with a forward mounting rail. I will hunt some boar in CA at some point, but I use it at range mostly. No shots more than 150 yds for sure.
I would like to put a illuminated scope on it, but scope will need extended eye relief. Very limited choices for rifle scopes; Nikon did not work and had to return (not enough relief). Leupold has a scout rifle scope but is not illuminated.
I am looking towards a pistol scope with fine illuminated reticle.
Will this option work for this rifle and if so, any suggestions for make and model #s.
Thanks.
$300-$500 range. NO TASCO, BUSHNELL, or chinese commie crap! :)
Good info! Keep it comin' thanks!
I understood the forward mounted scope allows for rapid target aquisition.
Perhaps a fixed power scope will offer more eye relief.
Keep the answers comin! thanks

I don't know of any handgun scopes with illuminated reticles. The closest thing I can think of is a Burris handgun scope with the Electro Dot reticle. It's a 2X7 pistol scope with their plex reticle with a red dot in the center of the cross hairs. Eye relief is 11 to 21 inches. I know the pistol scopes with standard cross hairs work fine on my Win. 94 with scout mounts. $399 in the Cabelas shooting catalog which isn't a bad price considering the quality.
