The 3 dot scope is probasbly set for 100-150-200 yds. Especially in 2 1/2 power. Does the 7/8 scope say all American?? They made a 7/8 scope called the Alaskan..I honestly thought all of the All Americans were 1 inch..also they made a scope a bit larger than 1 inch something like a 26 mm. The Perma center is the better of the All Americans. The older ones were set up so the reticle moved and if you didn't have a mount that would adjust a bit(like the Leupold/Redfield system) the reticle could be not centered in the scope. The scope with the power boost is probably a Lyman target. To the best of my remembrance they(Litschert) never made their own scopes..only the power boosting attachment and I think they also made an adjustable objective. How long is the target scope? What kind of mounts? I have had one or two in my time..as well as power boosted scopes. I had an old Kollmoran once that had a litschert attachment on it.. Still wasn't all that clear It was on an old Win 70 257..Sucker shot pretty good...on a good bright day
