Russian Scopes
My extended length stock w/adjustable cheekpad has been shipped by Rhineland Arms and I am going to mount a Harris bipod on it.

I am wanting to replace the scope as well, and am considering either a:
Kalinka

or the 10 power sniper, which is currently not on the website.
The 8 power is $219.00, and the sniper was $269.00.
I just wonder if the PSL's accuracy merits the higher magnification and price, as well as the wait for it to be back in stock?
Also, fixed and zoom, what are the advantages of either?
The rangefinder - that is merely the markings on the glass, isn't it? There isn't anything like a laser rangefinder involved, is there? So how is it different from the 4X POSP that is stock on the rifle, other than illumination and increase magnification?
At $15.00 each, the various colours of bulbs are affordable, but which are the most useful?
Thanks in advance for the info and opinions!

It's said the non-D scopes hold up a lot better than the -D versions. The fixed 8x42 without the "D" is a decent scope.

I did too until I got a 1" mount for it and stuck a 10X bushnell in it. Now I'm much happier.
