Ahh, that old thing.

You'd be better off just sending up to MN.

I would be very tempted to seek out an old Weaver J2.5 or J4 for your Husky. The slimmer body would sit and balance very well and the optics are usually very, very nice. A Lyman Alaskan would also be cool but they can be hard to find if a fella's cheap (and I know I am). If you wanted a variable, the V-22 (3-6x) is another decent slim tube...might have to fiddle with rings on that because they come with .22 tip-offs. I have been on a bit of a 'vintage scope' binge lately. It's been interesting.

As for it being a 'squirrel gitter', I'd think it'd be right up there with the best.
