simmons are not bad for thier price have a lot of friend s that swear by simmons.
tasco has not been impressive at all in thier buget scopes
me i'll stick with the better scopes
i may catch some flack for this next statment...so be it.
a $400 scope on a cheap rifle will please you with performance most firearms are intrinsicly more acurate than the off hand shot or the shooter any how.
the cheap scope that will not hold it's zero or shakes apart will NOT please you in anyway and you would not be able to realize the accuracy of the rifle no matter the cost of the rifle or its accuracy potential.
