Best optics for uzi and raging bull

I want to put some type of optics on these two guns.

I will be using the uzi carbine on running varmits from my tractor cab, probably around 50 to 75 yards. (Choosing the 9mm uzi for this, since I don't want to shoot my M4 indiscriminately over flat ground with lots of houses around).

I will be using the Taurus 454 for deer hunting. Want to reach out 100 yards or more. The 454 has a vicious kick, so I know whatever goes on it needs to be pretty tough.

What are your suggestions for each of these applications? Red dot, holo, standard scope? I don't want to break the bank, but want something of quality that works.

    I think the biggest problem is the mount.
    Check out this link for some possibilities:

    I put the Action Arms side mount on my UZI. The only problem with it is you can only put a 1" scope, or red dot on it. I have a 1-4 scope on mine, on 1pr I shoot it like a red dot, both eyes open.

    For your Raging Bull I would suggest a Leupold 2pr scope, in good mounts.

    A good red dot or holo would be perfect for your Uzi, I would sudjest a Burris 3-12X32 for your Raging Bull sence you are shooting varmints at long range.

    A good reflex/holo/red dot sight is what you are looking for on your Uzi...very quick sight, and target acquisistion. For the 454, there is only one word in pistol scopes for something of that magnitude, and that word is Burris. Anything other than a Burris, and it is going to be like pissing your money as you are going to have to replace it when it knocks out the crosshairs.
