Need help with shotgun scope
#11

I used to agree with this statement. Now I get chuckle when I hear it. I have a Leupold VX-II 2-7x33mm Shotgun Scope ($320) I bought brand new in 2004. It's going back to Leupold for the third time now. I've had it on 3 different guns and I can't get any of them to group with this scope. When I put a different scope on these guns they group fine. Leupold has always attempted to fix it, that I give them credit for, I'm just running out of money with the price of sabot slugs lol. I'm going to give them one more shot at it. If they can't fix it this time, I'm moving to a different brand all together. Maybe I'll give Burris a try.

Bushnell Banner muzzleloader/shotgun scope.$70 at Cabelas but I found one a Dicks Sporting Goods for the same price but saved on shipping since I picked it up local.I dont agree with the ''you get what you pay for'' phrase.This scope has never let me down and has be through so many shots and me bumping it up against trees.Look at all the reviews at Cabelas or Bassproshop on a scope in your price range and pick the one that has the most positive reviews.

Hi,
I'm new here so probably not much respect but I'm going to stick my 2 cents in anyhow.
Get a Nikon Slughunter. You can't go wrong with Nikon glass ever.
I have a 3-9 x 40 slug hunter on my 870 and since I wear glasses and have poor eyesight, the 5 inches of eye-relief is sure nice. Its a darn high quality unit that sucks in the light.
Mount it with a pair of weaver grand slam steel rings and you'll be all set to go.

Got to Natchez and buy a Simmons 4X32 Shotgun Pro-Diamond scope for about $40. This is a very good shotgun and muzzleloader scope for the money. It is good in low light. Had one on a muzzleloader: In six years it was banged around in my truck for thousands of miles and over 1,500 rounds before it went bad. My Remington 870 wears this same scope.
