Hey guys,

A few days ago I pulled out my .280 to clean it all up before rifle season starts. I looked through my scope and it was messed up. There was a thick fog type thing on the inside of the lens! I tried taking it apart and cleaning it, but, it didn' t work.

Well, yesterday I put the p.o.s. 3-9X32 Simmons on it, which I took offf my .22 Well, the thing is crap, not bad for a .22 but not good for a rifle, so, I need a new scope. Season is approaching quickly (Dec.1st) and I got to get a new scope. I just wanted to ask your opinions on a few models that I am looking at.

1. Cabelas Pine Ridge 3-9X40
2. Buck Ridge Horizon 3-9X40
3. Bushnell Trophy 3-9X40
4. Bushnell Banner 3-9X40
5. BSA Huntsman 4-16X40


I just want whatever is the best deal. I want something that is clear, sharp, waterproof/fogproof/shockproof, in other words, the best scope for under $100.00
