How do you like the 4x scope?
 
The UL has more finicky/shorter eye relief I do believe. I'd try one out before you buy if I were you.

That's the thing I'm very limited to choice where I'm located, no real shops around to try anything so sorta have to buy it and hope for the best.... Suck's but living in Nova Scotia I'm kinda limited.

But good thing there are sites like this where I can get the suggestions from others. Thanks for the input I. Will look into it.
 
The ultra light is a pos. sorry to offend those with them. I played that game and was quick to realize my mistake. If you are attracted to low fixed powers, find a zeiss conquest 4x. I'm not a fixed power guy, but my father has one and I admit its very very nice and wasn't big money either.

the ones that I've looked through over the years have all had a narrower and more finicky eyebox and quite short eye relief compared to non UL Leupolds of similar power range. Very sensitive to eye positioning. If I was going to go ultralight and wanted a Leupold variable, I'd stick with 1.75-6 or 2.5-8 in the VX3 line. Better glass, better and less critical eye relief and still very trim and lightweight.
 
20" fluted barrel on trued Remington 700 action, trigger tuned and action trued and restocked.... probably going to change the scope to 1.5 X 5 Leupold

I have had this for many years, Bobby Hart built back in 1994

Exactly what's pointed out below.
