Default RE: price ratio: rifle to scope

I agree with most of the others. The optics make the gun...period.
Camp...if you are looking for a good scope at a reasonable price...look at the Leupold VXII. Probably the best scope for the $. Nikon's are very nice also...and reasonable. You can spend a ton of money on optics, but you don't neccesarily have to. I would say that you could get a very nice scope for $200-$300. Just do yourself a favor, and don't go cheap. You will eventually upgrade, so you might as well do it now. Most people that claim that there is no difference in a high quality and a low quality scope...(ie: a tasco, simmons, etc...vs leupold, nikon, etc). It's obvious that those folks have never owned a high quality scope. It's night and day. Good luck
