Default Is this a good deal?

http://www.swfa.com/p-8071-burris-3-9x40-fullfield-ii-rifle-scope.aspx

I do not really have a big need for a spotting scope, but I would use it if I have it.

Thanks

If you don't need the spotting scope, for a few more dollars ($199.95 at www.natchezss.com)you can get a 3x9x40 Nikon Monarch that is a better scope. They have the sameBurris with a special free binoculars also.

It is a pertty good deal, and if you do not need the spotting scope, you could seel it and make some of your money back on the cost of the scope. In fact, I might even consider buying it from you ..... depending on what you were asking for it.

Just PM me if you decide to go that way and want to.

God Bless

I bought that combo about 2-3 years ago and am very pleased with the scope and the spotting scope can be useful at the range at long distances.The spotting scopeis not what I'd carry along a high dollar mountainous mulie, antelope, or elk hunt. I would take the rifle scope anywhere, anytime.

I think there low on stock on that deal. I wouldn't get it unless you could sell the spotting scope or sell both products at high price. On the other side of it makes me think why are they selling two in one for cheap.

I think for this price you get the Buckmaster, not the Monarch. Here is the Monarch price from the referenced web site:

Product Number: NK6520 Product Title: NIKON MONARCH 3-9X40 NIKOPLEX Item Price: $299.94 Availability: Currently Out of Stock, click the alert icon to be notified when product is available. Shipping Weight: 1.33 lbs.

Nope, its the Monarch. For the money, a Monarch for $199 is about the best scope deal you may ever find. Here is the link http://www.natchezss.com/category.cfm?contentID=productDetail&brand=NK& amp;category=405&subCategory=405&catLevel= 2&prodID=NK6525

SWFA prices are competitive. Check Optics Planet too.

I just checked my email and had a MidwayUSA e-flyer, and they are offering "up to" $115 off on Burris optics. They could be giving them away, and I would still pass. (JMHO)
