WTB LVPO for 375 H&H Bound for Africa

[Buckums]

I've been going back and forth with some of the nice folks on this site who have shared some of their knowledge on the subject and before I just go and order online somewhere, I wanted to first see if anyone has a suitable candidate laying around or on a rifle that isn't used any longer, etc. OR if I have to buy new, I would like to use a AH vendor if possible. This is going on a classic no frills Whitworth Interarms that I recently bought off of GI (pic below). Please let me know if anyone has anything they are willing to part with. Budget is <$2k range, or slightly higher for a good value. I hope to take possession of the rifle later this week and would like to get something on it ASAP to start shooting! Thank you.

Good buy on the Whitworth!! Looks like you'll have a solid setup when you get it all sorted out!!

Tract Toric is the best value by a very wide margin for me, you have to get into the Mark 6 and 8 before the Leupold gets to be on par.

Having said that, my last two trips to Africa I have taken a VX6, once on a 375 and once on a 416, couldn't have asked for more, it was perfectly fine.

...If you're interested, I have a VX3 2.5-8x matte, duplex, new in the box, still in the wrapper. $450 shipped lower 48.

What is a LVPO? From replies I’m guessing it’s a scope but never seen the abbreviation before.

I have basic Leupold 1.5-6 types on my Whitworths. Very functional and can be found on the used market (eBay) for easy money. Sorry I don’t have one available for you, but I’m sure you can find one with just a little looking.

I have a 1-4 Vortex Viper PST with lighted recital I could part with.

It's usually LPVO - Low Power Variable Optic
