Inexpensive shotgun scope

Fordracer2082 · Oct 6, 2012

I just ordered a fully rifled barrel with a Integral Cantilever scope base it comes with a bushnell banner 3-9 x 32 scope I also have a Simmons 4x32 Prodiamond SG scope I was wondering what scope would be better to use inside of 200 yards

skip the banner and get atleast the dusk to dawn line of bushnell

the banner comes with the barrel . I plan to use one of the two listed because they are what i have / will have I may buy a better one in a year or so but right now these are my only choices

If it were me, I would simply buy a 4X Leupold and sell the other two scopes to offset the cost. They are not that pricey in overall scheme of things and the quality is much better.

Magnification wise, either of your current scopes are fine for up to 200 yards, which is a long long shot for a slug gun.

I don't plan on shooting that far hence it's the max range . A nice leupold or Nikon are what I will likely buy next year but I don't have the funds at the moment

Don't know about the simmons but I have multiple Bushnell banner dusk/dawns and they are awesome for the money. Super clear and crisp.
