i couldn' t agree with you fellas more. i just bought a mon 60 two days ago down at bass pro for $108. it was originally 130 but they matched walmarts price of 108. then i got a great scope on it. they showed me a simmons 4x32 .22 scope and it is perfect. it cost 49 dollars and they mounted and boresighted it. i got the whole shabang for $170. not bad at all. all i needed it for is to sit in the yard and shoot rabbits out of the garden. they are eating everyone of my landlords watermelon and cantalope plants. he told me to shootem so that was the only excuse i needed for a new 22. anyway i love the gun and would strongly recomend it.
