Default RE: Shotgun Scopes

I suggest spending more money.

For that amount of money though I would suggest a Bushnell Trophy in 1.75-4 or 5 power. I will add though I have had two of these scopes, one worked great, the other was on a H&R Ultra slug. Basically what you are going to do. The one on the Ultra failed. After two seasons it would not hold zero anymore. Probably less than 50 hard recoiling shells did it in. I also let a young man shoot it and he smacked himself in the head with the scope from the recoil. Maybe that did it in, I don't know. Maybe I just got a bad one. I had my other one for a few years and sold it to a buddy, he still has it and it works fine. I know others that have them as well with no problems.

Like I said though, I would suggest you spend closer to $200 on a better scope with a better warranty. You will be happier in the end I promise. If I have to do it again I will get a Cabela's scope ( I live near one) or a Leupold. Simply for the reputation and outstanding customer service they both offer.

My opinions and nothing more.

Paul
