spotting scope, 150-200$ range?

[freeballer]

I hope I can find something in the 175-200$ range to do what I need.
I want to be able to spot a .22 / 9mm from 100-150ft.. It would be my first spotting
scope.. I know the terminology, but I need a little assitance.

thanks in advance,
Geo

I bought a Tasco scope at Pricess Auto for $30 on sale. Is is a 15-45 zoom. Optics are a little dark at full zoom but it works just fine for targets out to 200m. For the price, you can't go wrong it even came in a hard case. Spend more money on your firearm optics.

I'll have to check the local stock tomorrow.. their site has none available.
I'll also check amazon.ca...

Hey netguy - I am in Edmonton, which PA did you find it at - their website says they are not currently carrying it. Any information is appreciated.

Any decent pair of binos for 100 binos should be able to see that... even the cheap barska spotters would suit your needs

I have a Bushnell 45x that I bought used for $45...it works fine on everything to 100 yards...including .22...better a hand held zeiss binoc...or something better on your firearm...

best

I finally visited princess auto, they didn't have any scopes... on the plus side I bought an anno tin/box. (Didn't know they stocked them)

I guess its a preference. I didn't like using my binoculars at the range... probably means I need a better pair.
haven't found any sales locally. might try amazon..

A Celestron Ultama 80 would be a great buy mine was around $220.00 and works well from 20M to 200M with out a hitch..

I bought a cheaper one and traded up to this one..

Through a happy coincidence, I came upon another scope and am no longer in need of my Tasco... freeballer?

I second this spotter. I used it for 500 yrds shooting a couple weeks ago. No problems seeing 7mm and 308 holes at 500 yrds.
