Are Nikko Sterling scopes any good?
« on: June 15, 2009, 11:32:47 AM »
I'm looking at buying a new scope for my 35 Whelen and how well made the Niko Sterling scopes are. They seem like a lot of scope for the money.

I've had one that came on a rifle I purchased new. It lasted a few outings and went belly up.

They advertise on one of the outdoor channels.  Other than that, I have never seen or heard of them.  I'm usually cautious of any optic product that claims to provide a lot of quality for the money.  That's not normally the case.  Whenever a scope's price and quality seem to good to be true, it usually is.

Just curious, what is the price of the Nikko Sterling?  I may need to eat my words.  Maybe they are a great value.

Brithunter thought highly of them.  His were made in Japan.
