Hi All, I'm looking for an illuminated reticle maybe 3x9-40ish for my new Marlin 45/70, I hunt hogs here in Florida and in low light, I prefer an illuminated reticle. I hunt mostly from stands, so Im not sure I'm wanted a Scout mounted scope...

Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance!!

A 3-9x is overkill on most sporting rifles, WAAAAY too much for a Florida brush gun, especially a .45-70. Look at the various low powered variables. I'm rather partial to Leupold's VXII 1-4x and VXIII 1.5-5x.

Murph, look at shotgun scopes. That's the way that I went when the old eyballs let me down.

PM me, I'm just up the road.
