Hi! i'm getting ready to buy a new scope, and have heard amazing things about the new simmons Master Series scopes. I've shot an aetec around the square on my friends .30/06 and it was dead on. NOW the only thing is determining the dang difference between the AETEC and PROHUNTER scopes! also, does anyone know where i can find one with a discount or lower-than-average price? College kid on a budge here!

thank you

From what I have read, the prohunter series is truly a one peice tube. Current scopes offering a one peice tube are actually 2 pieces; the tube and the ocular bell. Somehow, Meade (who owns simmons, weaver, and redfield) has made the entire assembly aout of one piece of aluminum. Also the new pprohunters have a different erector assembly which makes it much more durable and less likey to shift with rough handling and shooting of heavey recoiling calibers. As far as the optics, I haven't heard wether there are any differences. I haven't seen any on the dealer's shelves yet. Check with binuculars.com and swfa to see if they ar shipping
