RE: what can you do if you don't have $$$ for a scope
Save your change! Last year i saved about $350 by just emptying my change in a jar every night. The old lady wont cry about it neither:-). This puts you into a Leupold vx-2, which you never be sorry with, or Nikons buckmaster, Bushnell elite. An extra $100 or lesswould get you a couple of nice Nikons if you can get them on sale.
