    Illuminated scope recommendations?

    I have Simmons .22Mag scopes on my 10/22 and my daughter's. My sons want scopes now. They like the illuminated, mildot, etc. scopes, not red dots. Teenagers, ha. Anyway, what would be a semi-decent scope to stick on their rifles? I betcha as soon as I put these on my son's rifles, my daughter will probably want one, so I guess I'm looking for three scopes. I don't want to spend that much on them but don't want to buy the cheapest out there. We just target shoot at 50 yards. Any recommendations? I just want them to keep having fun.

      Center Point Scopes from Walmart...


      You'll have three choices for illuminated $58 $69 and $106. They come with flip up lenses and mounts. You can try the mounts and see how they perform, I eventually replaced them.

      I have had three of the cheaper model on my Model 60's. The two 4-16 models are still working the 3-9 came apart inside. They have a guarantee but you need to keep the box and papers. The optics suffer at the high magnification, otherwise it's a decent scope for the money,I have spent more on scopes and been disappointed. The 4-16 is a bit large, but it has AO, very handy.

            Walmart Center Point 4 x16 x 40MM right at $70 the rings that come with it are junk but the scope works great.

            Here's 25 rounds at a 100yds using one. http://www.walmart.com/ip/CenterPoin...Scope/10248654

              If you want a decent illuminated scope I say +1 on the Leapers line, there Bug Buster line is pretty solid for a low end, affordable scope

                How about the NCStar Mark 3 compared to the others listed here?
