Just replaced a Simmons scope on my new 12 VSS with the above Leupold. This is my first varible target scope, did I do OK? Is it a good one?
Just curious as the Simmons is an 8x32 and the guy that sold me the gun tells me it's the top of the line Simmons scope. It's a big scope the same size as my BR Leupold X36.
I like the optics of the Leupolds just a little to much to keep the Simmons.

Good scope, this one is often overlooked in this forum. I like it because it's smaller dimensions and higher powers usually not found in this size of scope. No model of Simmons comes close to the VII's . I use one on a sub 1/2 min angle CZ 204 for high mountain marmonts.

Dale, thanks for the reply. Wasn't sure I did right with this scope as it's so small compared to my BR Leupolds. And living in the midwest this rifle won't get shot again probably until May. So I was very curious what to expect from it.
The only way I found that scope was looking at all the scopes Leupold made that said "Target". And then I found the scope on sale when I went to buy it.
I wasn't impressed with the Simmons, actually had double vision after looking through it for 30 minutes. But my eye sight isn't as good as when I was younger either. |
