Then there's the right way to look at it, Improvement is already done.

Just about anybody's 3x9 will let you pop cans at 300yds, if you and the rifle have the capability to shoot that well. You can get one at Wal Mart (or at least in my area you can.)

If you want the rifle to look period and purpose correct, look for one of the old Weavers or Lyman Alaskans. (though the Lymans have become a bit spendy due to collectors demand for "period correct" scopes.)
