The Konus 2-8x32 I'm not sure of due to the rather long eye relief of 19.4".

The Simmons ProHunter 4x32 and 2-6x32 are looking very good with the 4x32 at $89 looking like it might be best for the Swede m/96 mount that requires more distance in the eye relief. For most of the other mounts the NcStar scopes are fine as those mounts have adequate eye relief and ring adjustment.. but the Swede m/96 mount is limited. I'm liking the Simmons 4x32 and may order one tonight for one of the m/96 rifles.

The Simmons has a very generous eye relief range of 12 to 20 inches coupled with 9 inch length and 8 oz. weight. I'll know for sure only by getting one and trying it out. Standbye for that!

I just aquired a NcStar 2.5x20 handgun scope for $38 delivered off ebay. I wanted to try the straight tube type scope for some different applications. The scope is very bright and clear and seems fine so far.
