« on: October 10, 2006, 12:05:00 PM »
what is the difference between  a prine ridge scope, Tasco prongforn and the simmons 8-point besides prices?  i know you get what you pay for but a lot of scope's seem the same to me.

I have one of the Pine Ridge ML scopes I got on ebay for $25, the view thru it has a yellowish hue to it and is somewhat cloudy, same for a Tasco that I gave to a friend cuz he was needy. I have several Bushnell Banners that all cost less than $100 and are excellent budget priced scopes. I would recommend any of them over the low end Tasco or Simmons and Pine Ridge scopes.

For just a bit more money, the Trophy scopes are also excellent.

+1 for the Banner. I have several and am satisfied with each.  They are mounted on NEF centerfires.
