Walmart sells a spotting scope by Simmons: 20x50 with tripod for about $45.

I don't see it in their online catalog and I don't see any online reviews.

Any opinions on this scope are welcome.

I must add that I do not do credit card purchases; money orders OK.

TIA.

You get what you pay for and that's not much quality for $45. Spend a little more, it'll be worth it in the long haul (preferably, the rest of your life).

Start here, I'd recommend Leupold/Wind River. Kowa if money is no object or Burris/Bushnell if it is. Leupold/Wind River has a great warranty. Did I mention that I like Leupold?? ;-)

Well, considering that I paid $130 for my Savage MarkII, $150 for the Bushnell Trophy 3-9x40 scope with mounts, I'm looking for something less than the cost of both ;)

It doesn't need to be the best optics. Just good enough to see where the bullet went.

I think I have that. I cannot be 100% sure, because I dont have it with me right now. But it is a simmons and I bought it at chinamart for about that price about 2 years ago.

It will let you see shot placement on shoot-n-see targets at 200 yds. I cant remember if it shows misses at that range, it's been a while since I used it. It's not bad for the price.

But over the weekend I can check and see what it is that I have.
