Is this a good scope ? And would it be a good choice for the Edgun R5M long ? Use will be raccoons at 15-50 yards, primarily. But would like to show guys what it can do at 100 yards on occasion also. Or is there a scope you would recommend ? I found this one on sale for 400.00. Also does any one know what height rings I would use, I want it as low as possible.

Ghost, excellent choice. After you receive it, remove the O-ring on both turrets and it will give you a better click and more responsive feel. I have the MIL version, which is also on sale at Amazon.com and Midway for $399. Your choice, MIL or MOA... I prefer MIL, since all my scopes are MIL. I won EBR 2019 (Sportsman) with a 4.5-27x50 version of this scope.
I use these rings in Medium height on my EDguns... Make sure to get the 50mm offset, NOT the 34mm offset... Obviously the ring ID is 30mm.
