I would tell you that using all those adapters is a waste of money but "too each his own", it's your money. You do need to check around before you buy. The same mount is often available for half the price if you turn the next page or go to the next website. I have seen the mount Hunter is using for as little as $15 and a much as $75.
Many of us are using the 2-7 NcStar LER scope due to the amount of scope you get for the money. These Mosins have some long range capabilities and the 7x feature is handy.
The origional scout rifle concept called for a 3x LER scope, mostly because Burris made one of the only LER scopes available at that time in 3x. We are talking about the early 1970s.
Sights for a "scout rifle" are pretty much whatever you want to use; Rear mounted scope, LER scope or ghost rings.
