I just put an add up in the accessories buy/sell subforum, but I wanted to post here too. I'm looking for a low-price-point scope (that's not Tasco/BSA/Barska) that will hold up to being on my range/hunt 30-06. I shoot about 20-40 rounds a month, so I don't need something stress-tested by the military. I'm not wanting to spend a lot of money, so I'm not expecting top-end quality.
I just want an inexpensive scope that has adjustable, lockable turrets for elevation/windage correction, with a magnification in the 4x-12x or 16x range. Obviously a low-end scope's internals aren't going to be as good as a high-end scope, but I'd prefer a scope that can approximate a box drill at 100-200 yards. However, I understand if that's just not possible with my budget, in which case I'll take what I can get.
My current scope is a 3-9x knockoff brand I inherited with the rifle that's a pain in the ass to adjust. Do you all have a brand you trust at the $125 price point, or is it all the same crap and I might as well buy a $75 BSA scope until I can afford a $500 Leupold?
Thanks!
