I'm new ti rifles, just bought S&W MP-15 (.223). I have champaign taste on a beer budget, the scopes I'm currently looking at are
http://www.competitor.net/leapers-utg-3-12x44mm-swat-ie-ao-mildot-ez-tap-water-proof-riflescope.html The reason I'm looking at that scope is, it has good magnification, and it's cheap. I've heard it was made for air rifles or 22's but I've read a lot of reviews saying they've used it on.308 and ar's. I don't want to waste that money on a scope that may not handle the recoil of a non air rifle. What do you think? Also, what you recommend on a budget of about $150? |

Check out the Pentax 3-9x40 Pioneer Penta Plex Rifle Scope 89613 on ebay for $125.
I would certainly go that way instead of Leapers. |

SVT - you should check out that Pentax.
It's the old Burris-made one. Must be last batch SWFA has. Edited by Shenko - October/20/2011 at 14:56 |
