Hi all,
Just picked up a new 375 JDJ 14 inch barrel for my TV Encore. I wear tri focal glasses and will be shooting less than 150 yards. Should I use a fixed 2x or 3-9 scope? Planning on hunting deer, hog and maybe my bucket list elk. Any advice appreciated.

Re: 375 JDJ Scope Help
Best advice is make sure whatever you put on it is a high quality scope so it will withstand the recoil.
My .375 originally had a 4X Burris Pistol scope and i ran about 100 rounds through it with no issues. I recently put a Simmons 2.5x7 pistol scope on it and was worried the Simmons might not hold up. I have run at least 75 rounds through with the Simmons and it holds zero with no issues so I am happy.
My .375 JDJ is magna-ported so recoil is slightly less than a standard barrel.
