I’m doing some rearranging on rifle-scope combos I have on hand. Looking for a low price scope to put on a 243. Hawke and Bushnell Banner 2 are the scopes that I’m leaning toward. I’ve used the original Bushnell Banner scopes and haven’t had any issues. I know nothing about Hawke scopes other than a couple friends have them and they really like them. Anyone have any advice which is better? Both are cheap so I don’t expect a whole lot. Or do y’all know of another scope(s) under the $200 price range y’all would recommend? The rifle I’m referring to doesn’t get used much if that makes any difference.

I have a vortex diamondback on a few. Not my favorite scopes but not bad for the price.

Sig wiskey pretty good.Look on Natchez web site has luepold rifleman around $200 & several nikon's.

I guess all I’ve ever had are cheap scopes. Hawke, Bushnell, Tasco and Sig. I have cheap guns to!

I’ve got one of these and really like it for the money, it has an illuminated dot as well

Burris fullfield ii is a good scope and very resonable
Vortex would also be a good choice

Sig...

I have a Konus that is real clear and gathers a lot of light. Will see how it holds up.

OMG!!!!! Please don’t buy cheap glass!!!!! Life is much to short for cheap glass!!!

I just put a monstrum tactical on my gun...good reviews..and so far..its been great

Why....? They make great stuff in his price range..a good bit has already been listed...payin more than $500 for a rifle scope is retarded if your killin deer.

I’ll double down and say more than $250 is retarted or just dick measurements.

Soooo you're one of those that'll pay good money for a rifle, only to top it with a cheap piece of glass? I'd rather have $250 dollar rifle, topped with a high end scope, than a nice rifle with a cracker jack scope. But hey, that's just me 😉

Not quite, I don’t even buy nice rifles. I don’t buy anything that isn’t a really good deal.

I can agree with this. My remington 760 with a $200 redfield 2x7 can shoot better than I can.

I just ordered a Vortex Sonora for 116.00 delivered from PSA, I hope it works on my AR-15

bushnell banner 4x32, made in korea, diamond plex reticle. i've had a couple over the years, both still going; zero issues.

They sure have some good sales. Buy the best you can afford at 50% off

Uhhuhh...i dont even buy good guns...all i gots a savage...ugliest cheapest gun i could find

Hawke. Friend has the tactical one and it passed the box test and has been a great scope for the money. I don't buy cheap optics but I'd probably buy a Hawke
