I have not shot it, nor will I anytime soon.  Since it does not have iron sights, I have to still set it up, but I have been too busy bowhunting.
I have found a used scope for sale locally, but I need to save up a bit for it.  It is a Leupold 1.5 x 5 with an illuminated recticle, obviously not cheap.  I have an idea, I don't know if it is a good one, but here it is.  I want to get weaver style mounts for the 7400, which I already have on my rifled shotgun.  I have an AR-15 coming in, which has a picatinny rail on the riser block for optics.  What I am thinking about doing is getting some Warne Maxima weaver style quick detatchable rings for the scope, and using it on the shotgun, rifle, and the AR-15 when coyote hunting.  I would have to keep track of how many clicks to adjust to each guns zero, but I can document that on a card and keep it handy.
I can justify spending the money for the scope if it will be used as "three scopes."  Does this seem like it will work, or am I nuts?
Praise the Lord, and pass the ammunition!

I don't know. Being that its a Leopold you want to get and it should have the 1/4 inch adjustments you might be alright. But I don't know how long they'll last. The nice thing about Leopold is that if you do wear them out Leopold will fix them free of charge!

I think I have a set of iron sights that will fit that rifle. I took them off a Remington model 700 BDL. If you want them you can have them!
