Default BSA PANTHER SCOPE??

Looking into buying one of these for my rifle, i was just wondering if anyone has any feedback on them. They look very nice and actually usuable. Just let me know what you all think

JUNK

You would be better off buying a cheap $99 Tasco / Bushnell.

This is the information that I need. I wasnt wanting to buy the $300 buckmasters nikon, I have been on a budget. I seen the price of these scopes, and they look very functional with the sunshade and all, but i dont know anything else about it. A good $99 bushnell banner, dusk till dawn, was my other option.

I second the junk on bsa.

I use tascos on all my guns "right now". IMO, tasco and what I have heard about the bushnell banner (places where always out of them when I went to get one) are the better low end scopes. the 10+ year old tasco I moved from one gun to muzzleloader was giving me 3 to 5" groups at 75 yds and I have not even got it fully zeroed or works on my loads yet. my only complant about it is that it likes the quick site in, it took 28 shots one scope shot to the head, and a tired eyes to figure that out it could of been a little help from me on that too, only reason i stopped sighting was I ran out of daylight.

try to stay away from the BSA's that is some of the worst glass on the market,if your not opposed to putting a scope on your gun that's realtree hardwoods go to www.natchezshootersupply.com they have some good deals on scopes they have a 3x9x50 nikon prostaff realtree for $149.99 I like the bigger objective lens on my scope's because they let in more light at first and last light when you need it the most,if you can spend more than that do it,I would rather have a good accurate gun that was used for $150.. and some good glass on the gun so I could use it under any condition,check out some reviews on here there are alot of people on here that have a lot of knowledge and will lead you in the right direction..........Ted

www.natchezshootersupply.com , they have great prices, but they wont sell to anyone in the state of TN. I got on there and got all excited about the place and then saw the stipulations of not selling to anyone in TN, AL, MS, and i think GA. Pretty crappy.

I would never trust a BSA,Tasco or Simmons on any hunt.

BSA and Barska are GARBAGE, JUNK. You can alsoput Simmons and Tasco in that same catagory.

Go to ebay and buy a used Nikon Buckmaster, Burris Fullfield II, Sightron SI or SII, or Bushnell Elite 3200 and don't look back. Any of these scopes can be had for less than $200 and are light-years better in terms of optics, tracking, and reliability holding zero.

If your on a budget I'd recommend a Bushnell Banner or Trophy.
