You guys can laugh all you like, but Midway sells a Simmons scope that they call the
Whitetail Classic. It's a heck of a scope that sells for just a little over $100.00. We've got several of them in the family now and they've been holding up for over five years. We've got them mounted on 7mm Rem Mag, .308, .243, and .30-06. They're really a lot better than the price point suggests and if you're looking for a nice scope on a budget, take a look at the Whitetail Classic.
