Far Shot feat and Modern Firearms scope; do they stack?

[XmarkXalanX]

I’m GMing a game of Reign of Winter, and no spoilers, but my Gunslinger PC got their hands on a scope for their firearm last game, and they asked if the ranged penalty reduction from the scope stacked with the ranged penalty reduction from the Far Shot feat. I’m finding no other discussion on this, so I figured I’d reach out to the rest of the Pathfinder community. Thoughts? Do they stack?

For ease of reference the scope in question’s description is as follows:

“Scope: Scopes are telescopic sights mounted on rifles to increase accuracy at range by magnifying the target. Scopes reduce the penalty for ranged attacks by 1 for each range increment.”

Benefit: You only suffer a –1 penalty per full range increment between you and your target when using a ranged weapon.

Normal: You suffer a –2 penalty per full range increment between you and your target.

So I would say yes, it appears they stack. Far Shot changes the range increment penalty from -2 to -1, the scope reduces that by 1 to 0. One sets it to a specific value, the other reduces the value. I don't see why they wouldn't stack.

Fair enough. That’s kinda what I figured, but wanted clarification before next game. Thank you.
