I have a Leupold VX-2 2-7 on mine and love it. I should mention my marlin is a .44 mag but both are shortish range rifles.

I have since shrank those groups to about 2" at 100 yards when I am having a good day, the scope makes it a lot easier of course. I liked this VX-2 so much I got a VX-1 Scope for my new marlin XT-22.
