RE: Simmons Whitetail Expedition Scope
I tried one out when looking for scopes for my .17HMR. Really nice scope for the money. I think the one I looked at was a 4-16x40 or 44 with an adjustable objective. It was $200 at cabela's.
That's a pretty decent price for a varmint scope, especially for how good it looked at 100 yards on full power. They have since discontinued them. I think they are the dedign the aetec's are based on. I had to get a scope for twice the money to better it in optics.
If you can find a deal on one I would grab it if it fits your needs. I wouldn't mind having another one in a 3-9 power or something for my muzzle loader.
