Default Varmint Scope

I know another help me pick a scope question but I just don't know which one to pick, so let me get your vote on a varmint scope, or any suggestions on a scope but my bugget is tight so I can't go over $200 and closer to $150 would be better and I know I shouldn't skimp out on optics but its either that or no rifle....not even a question!!!lol Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated, thanks. Happy New Year!

I wouldn't buy any of the ones you mention...sorry.

I would, however, take a look at these:

i have the tasco target 10-40X50 and the tactical 10X mildot. i've been pleased with them for quite some time. pretty good for a cheap scope. most of the scopes i have bought recently are leupold fixed powers and vx-111's. i also just ordered a nikon monarch 65.-20X40 for my 22-250 encore. if i planned to buy a cheap scope again i would probably go with mueller. they make some excellent scopes for the money.

save up more money. You'll be happier. This best scope for the money that I know of is a Weaver Grand Slam:

Bushnell elites are super too:
