    Not sure for hft but I'd have said a nice straightforward 3-9 maybe prostaff efr? Or if you're feeling a bit richer and don't mind a narrow fov a vortex Diamondback HP 2-8..

    I had a Simmons WTC 1.5 -5 x 20 on my SLR98 and it was excellent. Not sure about HFT though, but one of the other WTCs would surely fill the bill.
    Happy Shooting!! Paul.
