bushnell sentry spotting scope 18-36 x 50mm

i cant seem to find any reviews on this scope. would this be good for looking 100 yards or so?
i found it on clearance at walmart for $75.
does anyone think this is a good deal? or might anyone have any other recommmendations?
thank you

Checkout MidwayUSA. Find the spotting scope and then check the reviews. I'm pretty sure there are some out there for this scope. Perhaps Cabela's too.

Looks to be $90 normally.

You get what you pay for. I once bought a cheap scope never again. Check out the Konus line,they arnt bad for the money bout 200.I know its not 75 but it is a much better scope.jarheadtop.com has them.

well i will learn but for me i dont thing ill need a $200 plus scope. its just for seeing down the range once in a while.

how about this one?
NCStar 20x60x60
i just saw it in mint condition in the paper for $55.
comes with tri pod and laser and case

Walmart around me sells a Simmons spotting scope for ~50 bucks that doesn't appear too bad. I though about picking one up for 100 yard stuff. Looking through it in the store, it actually looked a lot better than I thought it would.

Yeah, for range stuff at closer rangers, a cheap spotting scope is fine. They just tend to be kinda fragile, and not water resistant as much.

 

[saltysteven]

so which would you go for ?
NCStar 20x60x60 $55 used mint
or bushnell sentry spotting scope 18-36 x 50mm?

20x60x60

i thought that would make the most sense but i wasnt sure if it fell short in quality next the bushnell.
