There is something to be said about spending money on quality glass. You don't need to spend a $1000 to get a good scope. You also wont get a good scope for $50. Spend the most you can afford and stick with known manufactures. If you do buy a low end scope I'd like you to try one thing then tell everyone the results. Once the scope is mounted to the gun secure the gun in a Gun Vice. Make sure the gun doesn't move then grab the eyepiece and while looking through the scope try to move the eyepiece. Tell us the results. I once had a cheap scope and when I tried that I just couldn'timagine how it hit anything. Grantedsome people get decent groups but I don't like the idea of seeing the crosshairs move that easy. BTW the scope was a Simmons and I gave it away.
