Scope on a Sharps

Not necessarily
I do lots of shooting over 200 meters but not with BPCRs , but the OP asked for enough power to see the holes.
And there are lots of rifle scopes out there that can do that, one example ( Sightron - SIIISS 10-50x60 LRT/MOA-2 .125 MOA - MOA-2) .
Your a little off on the American price, they are a grand US or $1300 Canadian Peso. Probably $1700 once the dust is settled.
I,ve looked at both the leatherwood and can, not what I want. I have good hunting scopes and target scopes. I guess D&T is my only option. Will decrease the value but it is mine, paid for, and I would play with it more.
Yuppers. MVA Winchester Model B-series scopes come in x3, x4 and x5 and look the part, being slim, but only about fifteen inches long. They come with two versions - plain but clicking mounts for US$575, or with graduations for US$650. They even have the original 'grasshopper tube tension spring! Quality, as you might expect, is outstanding.
Stay away from the Pedersoli stuff - ALL of it - with regard to telescopic sights. I've just arranged the entire replacement of a long tube scope made in Hongpan and the crappiest mounts you've ever seen in your life on a pal's Sharps. He paid over a thousand US for them extra when he bought the Pedersoli Sharps, and they are not worth sending back. There just has to a be a good reason why MVA stuff dominates BPCR worldwide. Here in UK nobody but me has anything else. I've got a x18 Unertl Super Target on my High Wall.

Sounds like you got ripped off, scope comes with Malcolm mounts, for fifty dollars more you can get the Creedmoor higher mounts.

I have a few of the MVA scopes. They are good, but you'll have a hard time seeing bullet holes past 100 yards every time. When the light is good I can see holes at 200m, but this is not the normal circumstance. A friend has an older Fecker scope that is 12x which is still a small tube (3/4") scope, but they are quite hard to find.

If it keeps you shooting, put anything you want on your rifle! Yours is the ONLY opinion that matters. Gute ziel.
