I badly need a upgrade on my current simmons scope that is on my .270 Savage. Last year i missed out the the chance for a large buck because it had just become slightly to dark to shoot through the scope. So i would like a scope that is gonna perform well at twilight. I would also like something that will do pretty good at long ranges up to 500yd's. My budget is anything under $150. Thanks guys, If you need more info i can provide it.

mate on my uncles .270 that I inherited sorter has a tasco world class 6x40 and it is great on dark where we have shot pigs/goats and its also great in the spotlight.regards

WOW, $150 is a tough ceiling for quality. I'd suggest investigating ones such as: Swift Premier, Sightron S1 milldot or HHR, or Nikko Sterling Game King. Perhaps you can save a bit more and get up around $300???

Go to E-Bay and search for Bushnell Elite 3200 scopes. You might be able to pick one up close to your budget. Very nice scope for the money.

okay i edited the orignal post so tell me what you can do now? what about this scope?? Bushnell Banner 4-16x40 Matte IR Riflescope 714164I Rifle scope

I will also be taking some closer shots that could be under 100 yards when i hunt from my archery stand.

Thirdgenerationshootersupply.com has Bushnell Elite 3200 with firefly on sale for $153 right now. That is what I would do. Also look on ebay for a burris Fulfield II I got mine new on there for $150.

What about this scope??? http://cgi.ebay.com/Bushnell-Trophy-...ht_2945wt_1109

The Bushy Elite 3200 is way better than the Banner or Trophy series. The suggestion of a Burris Fullfield II is also a good choice. Maybe a used Leupy VX II?

Save your money and buy some quality glass.



Buy it once.................!



Rule of thumb = At least what you paid for the rifle (most say X2).

You may be able to get Nikon Prostaff off of Ebay for the price.
