Canadian Tire Bushmaster spotting scope

Anyone have experience with these? I don't need anything fancy. I just want to be able to see bullet holes at 200 yards...maybe 300...

With one of those CTC scopes, the holes have to be very big.

CTC Scope

One thing to check is the tripod. Make sure it's sturdy. if it isn't, you won't be able to see a thing, no matter what the optics are like. Keep in mind that if you have to get a better tripod, it'll set you back about $60.

Really? Even at 60x magnification?

Its this one:

Perhaps this is a different scope than the one that I bought & took back.
It was about a year ago when they were on sale & numerous people on this forum were not happy with it.

My suggestion is to try one. CTC has a very good refund policy if you don't like it.

I have one, no good for 200 meters,great for 100 meters

Mine is great at 100 yards..I use a better tripod though...

 

[wherermykeys]

OK, I'll give it a try...I can always return it I guess. I just want a cheap scope to see holes with...is that too much to ask?

I have one......it is useless over 100 yards. I use my leupold 6-20x scope to spot at 200 because it works better than that 60x spotting scope does.

At 100 yards is great for anything down to a 22LR, 200 yards is pretty much tops as long as your shooting at least a 30cal. Anything smaller maybe tough to see.

what everyone else said, not too bad at 100, waste of time for anything beyond that.
