Welcome to the forum, it depends on whether you will be out single handed or wth a mate. if your on your own get a scope mounted one if theres two of you then maybe hand held. Either way get as many amp hours as pos on the battery and as much cp as you can. i use a cluson cb2 pretty old but 1,000,000 cp and lots of battery life, its a hand held but you can also get a scope mounting kit. i've used it both ways for about 10 yrs and, apart from a new battery when i left it without a charge, its been faultless! Good hunting!
