Any variable scope that turns down to the 3-4x range will be fine. That's where I leave mine anyway and seldom adjust it higher.

In brushy country where you may be called upon to make a quick shot, the fit of the rifle-scope combination is more important than any reasonable caliber, what scope you have mounted, or the particular rifle. You just need to be able to pull the rifle to your shoulder and essentially be on target or close.

If I were buying a scope special for such a hunt, it would be a short variable or fixed 4x.

If this is not something you are comfortable with, practice snap shooting on soda cans, clay pigeons and so forth at ranges to 100 yds.
