Need advice on optics for my deer rifle
Im gearing up for the fast approaching deer season, but need some advice on what kind of sights/optics to put on my rifle.
My knock-around rifle is a Marlin 1895 Guide in .45-70 Govt. I installed a XS picatinny rail system so I've got lots of options as to what I can mount on there.
I don't anticipate any shots longer than 125 yards. What do you guys think? Should I go with a holographic sight like the EOTech 553, or M68? Can those even withstand the recoil a .45-70 generates?
Maybe a 1-3x Leupold? Plain jane iron sights?
All suggestions and thoughts are greatly appreciated.
