Bryan, I have a FA 97 that wears a Leupold 2X, and a FA 252 (83) that wears a Leupold 4X. If you are going to use it for squirrel hunting, I recommend the 2X, because squirrels move so frequently and fast that it's hard to track them and get back on, with a 4X, On the other hand, if one wants the scope primarily for stationary inanimate targets, or for shooting prairie dogs, I recommend the 4X.
A Bushnell 3200 2-6X might make a suitable compromise. It is not much larger than the Leupold 4X.
