I recommend two scopes that are inexpensive but perform very well. One is the Simmons Atec and the other is the Bushnell Elite 3200. The Atec is the only Simmons scope I' ll use. It is a darn good scope and you can see out of it after the sun goes down better than with your eyes. The Bushnell is a great bargin and very bright, it doesn' t cost as much now because they are pushing the 4200. The 3200 is fully multi coated, water proof, shock proof and that rainguard works well.
