barska scopes

Does anyone know about these are they a decent quality scope for the price? I'm looking for an inexpensive scope, but don't want to buy crap.

Anyone have one? I am looking at a 20-60 spotting scope they produce.

My barn 22 has carried one for five years. It is now toast, not holding POI. In a word they are junk, but at least they are cheap junk.

I'll be ordering a Burris to replace it.

I had the same question and searched the forum for Barska. Here are the responses to a previous post with the same question.

The minimum that I use on my rimfires are the current production Bushnell Banner dusk to dawn series of scopes. I expect they are in the same price range as the barska scopes, depending on where you buy it. I have had the 3x9x40 Banner on my 17hmr for a couple of years and it has been great. I wouldn't put one on any medium to larger centerfire cartridge rifle. Given the cost of ammo these days there is no longer any good reason to use cheap optics......
