Default Pentax Gameseeker scopes?

Hey there... Does anyone have any advice on Pentax scopes? Anyone use one, know of one, heard of one, etc..etc..?

See, I am torn between leaving my old Marlin 30-30 as is with the plain open sights. Or, going back to putting a small scope on it with the low profile Weaver base & rings that I still have for it.

Check this out....

Pentax has a fixed 4X scope that has a ballistics plex and is only $88 bucks or something like that. I used to have an old Glenfield 4X32 on my Marlin 30-30, but it broke and lost its zero, so I took it all off, and got used to using the plain open sights again.

I guess with the new Hornady LeverEvolution rounds, I am considering going back to a scope on my 30-30. But I don't know... I'm thinking about it.

I like the Pentax Gameseeker 4x32, then again I also like the Bushnell Banner Dusk & Dawn 1.5-4.5 x 32 scope.

Which would you prefer? I love Leupold scopes, but not the price (Major $$$$$ ). A nice Leupold scope would be 2-3 times the cost of my old 30-30!!

a) Pentax Gameseeker 4x32 OR
b) Bushnell Banner Dusk & Dawn 1.5-4.5 x 32.

Thanks for any advice....
