Default RE: scopes

ORIGINAL: PAPRIG

I have a cheap Cabelas Pine Ridge 2-7 X 32 on my Omega but I'm looking at the 3-9 Nikon Prostaff and Bushnell Elite 3200 lines because I have trouble seeing the target consistently at 100 yards.
I would not get the prostaff - not fully multicoated = poor light transimission
I would not get the Elite 3200 - only 3 inches of eye releif ( I like that scope actually but the eye releif is too small for a muzzleloading scope.

In the same price range I would go with a Simmons Aetec 2.8x10-44...
It is fully multicoated and has 5 inches of eye relief, not to mention the widest field of view at 100 yards of the three.

For significantly more you might want to look at the Leupold VX-II, avoid the VX-1's and rifleman's, they are WAY overpriced for an inferior scope!
