Just put a few rifled slugs throught the Nova. Not too shabby. Only target was 100 yards. I managed to keep all five within 26" with no rest, stock bead sight, below zero temps, and bad eyesight.

I'd like to put a scope on it to see how accurate I can get. Any recommendations?

Have no fear, I don't plan on hunting out at 100 yards with it. I don't hunt....yet, and besides, I have other tools for that. I just like to see how far I can shoot accurately.

I've seen the scope mount from B-Square. How well does it work? Would you recommend it or something else?

Ok...I found the B Square mount for the Nova at a pretty good price.

Now...a new question:

I will most likely only use this gun for informal backyard clay pidgeon shooting. I do like the idea of shooting rifled slugs for accuracy.

So....would you put a scope mount on it?? If so, what optics would you put on it?

I have a RedDot that isn't doing anything, but I'd like a little magnification...4x or so.

Thanks

Thats why I just went with rifled slugs. I can get a box of 5 Federal Classics for $1.80. Its more expensive than target loads, but fun launching that hunk of lead out to 200 yards. (i'm limited at the range here.

)

I'm just wondering if I would have to take off the scope mount every time I want to shoot clay pidgeons. :?

Thanks for all the input.

I'm leaning toward the B-Square mount. I have a good fixed 4x scope already.

Would the recoil reducer make a difference?
