To me it looks like they don't make the Compact in laminate:

I checked the Specials, but that also looked like no 300RCM in Laminate.

yeah think so now for the next challenge what optics to go with? i've been looking at leupolds vx3L and nikon monarch i'm just worried about messing up the balance and feel of the gun with a big scope on a tiny lil gun but i want something that won't let me down in low light

Check out the Leupold VX-II 6-18x40, Fine Duplex, Matte or the VX-II 6-18x40, LRV Duplex, Matte they are lighter and smaller than the "big glass." I use one and it is currently on a Savage 93-17 .17 HMR rifle. I avoid all Nikon products, I have several Monarchs and the picture quality is just not up to par compared to the Bushnell Elite 4200, the Leupolds, Burris or even the Clearidge XP. The Clearidge is a good scope made in the same factory as the Bushnell Elite using the same glass. They are no-frills like the new Redfield and a good value. Check out all the scopes at www.theopticzone.com for good prices.
