Budget hunting scope advice

[Glot]

Hi all. I just bought a Ruger American rifle in 308 and Im now looking for a budget scope. I live in the southeast and will be using the rifle for mostly deer and hog hunting. Any ideas on $150 ish scopes? I often play on the best slots online which I found here on the top-slotmachine.com (https://top-slotmachine.com/) and can buy more expensive, but only if it very good.

Find a used vortex diamondback or crossfire.

If you live in New York, your $150 USD goes a lot further than our northern peso. But, it still won’t buy you quality. Spend $300 USD and find a used Leupold, Vortex, Older Nikon etc. I’m assuming you’re shooting under 150 yards, so find a lower power 2-8x32 for example which will work in tighter for hogs. Good luck.

my vote for budget scope would be burris, fullfield and C4 models have both been good to me

another vote for Burris or Vortex (diamondback / crossfire). Couple of friends hunt with them and have been quite reliable for them.

Just be aware if you buy a scope from the USA it may fall under ITAR and you might not receive it or be able to buy it.

I'd say save a little longer and buy better, buy right buy once. Cheap scopes are cheap for a reason. A decent used scope in the $300 range may well last you a lifetime.
