got a question on the Aetec scope. ive heard that they a good scope and would like some input on them. im looking to buy a 243 rifle and will need a decent scope for it. it will mostly be used to hunt groundhogs and maybe deer too. im looking at a 4x12 power. any info would be helpful. thanks.
I found out today.
Simmons is made by Bushnell now.

Bushnell is making Tasco scopes also.

And I would not buy a Simmons right now.... the scopes out there are still the ones manufactured under Meade, and they are crap... Give it a little time and they will be ok...
And I would not get a Tasco either..... Crap.
Consider a Nikon Prostaff as a starting point if at all possible.
Look around at
www.theopticzone.com or
www.swfa.com the optic zone usually has better prices than swfa, BUT sometimes swfa will sneak one in and suprise me.
