There were a few posts here earlier this year about a Russian Scope, 40x I think, that was pretty darn good and ruggedly built and was priced at only $79.00.
I don't recall which company had them for sale. Anybody know which scope I'm referring to? Anybody got any info or links? |

Go to [url]www.jgsales.com[/url], click on 'online store', then click on 'optics', then click on 'spotting scopes'. There you will see a Tasco 20-60 zoom with a 60mm front objective for $59.95. I have one exactly like it and it works fine. It also works pretty well for checking out the women up on the lighthouse catwalk.

What price range?
I would go with a good quality scope. Champions Choice, Kowa etc. On the other hand there is nothing better than good optics. You can go from <$200 to >$1500 in range. I use a Leica Televid 20-60x77mm angled. With scope cover, and a Ewing 1" stand...$1400. Lew |

tippie: what is the highest you can go on the 20 to 60 power and not have distortion when using it at 600 or shooting 800,900 or 1000.
I know on a hot day a 25 to 27 power you can see holes at 300 but can you see holes out pass that with your leica? thanks jon |

jc121,
It depends on the mirage. The heavier the mirage, the lower I have to go on the zoom. I can have it all the way up to 60x for the 200! I keep it around 24 to 30 most of the time. For the 1000yd line, I turn it all the way down, to reduce distortion. On an overcast day, I can see .308 holes @ 600yds. .223 @ 300yds on a bright day with medium or lighter mirage. Lew |

I have about a 250 price range.--should've made that clear earlier. Anyway, I would also need a stand and all the other accessories. Are there any other cheap online stores besides J&G? Is it possible to find an angled scope at the 250 price range? Thanks!
