As you mention the Phillipines made Simmons are excellent. I understand the latest versions were made elseware and quality has gone downhill, so check any Simmons first for country of manufacturer. BSA have never been known for the quality of their scopes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bullet boy Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Simmons WTC without a shadow of doubt!Excellent scopes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboy197 Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I have a Simmons on my Anschutz 17HMR. Its great for the price, plenty of zoom and accurate enough for bunnies out to 100m. Mine does not have a dotted reticule pattern which might help if you are shooting less flat trajectory rounds or in windy conditions with slower light rounds. I just get around it with a bit of guess work but then I'm not that dedicated a bunny buster so if it is too windy, I shoot from closer! IMHO you can go a bit mad when it comes to scopes so buy something that is priced with the type of shooting in mind. No point having a hyper accurate mil dot reticule for an air rifle shooting 30m but then again if you can afford who cares! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
