      my dad has a henry big boy in .44mag, put almost the same exact scope as you on it, went with the 3-9x40. he picked up a pachmayr slip on because his has the brass buttplate on the back and didn't want to fiddle with it. it does a decent job, and you can take it off to show off the stock when...
