No offence to anyone here! But I agree with Hitzy.

I think the only defensible answer is, you have to have something until you can save up some cash for a much better one.

Try it at longer distances, and report back how far you can see bullet holes in a target.

Mine works pretty good at a 100 yards and thats about as far as I'll ever use it.

I'm not totally disagreeing, but it suits my needs pretty good at the $20.00 I paid for it. The tripod looks like it may not withstand much abuse, but the scope itself is well worth what I paid.

I bought the 'Celestron Spotting Scope, 60 mm' last week from crappy tire for $85 bucks half off from $170 regular price. Got a chance to take it to the range today and I could EASILY see the 200 yard target at 40x and still had 20X left to get to full capacity of the 60X. I always like waiting for deals at CT when things go 50-75% off. The scope at CT is a good buy at 50% off.

Good deal..

so I just took this to the range today and all I can say is that this thing is atrocious, sure I didn't expect much but I can barely see anything at 100 yards

the 3-9x bushnell scope on my .22 is more useful

Lol glad I didn't get one then
