Just about any scope under $200 is going to be the same. It will get you by, but with scopes you definitely get what you pay for.

I had a Tasco 3-9x40 mounted on a crossbow.I used it one season (6 weeks) at the end of the season i shot one last arrow thru my crossbow & the Tasco scope fell apart.Part of the scope laid on the ground.Tasco scopes are JUNK! 0 -
As with most things in life, you get what you paid for. Tasco may make some junk, but then again...........I use a WC 3x9x40 MilDot on my Target 10/22.I've used it for a year with no problems. I don't know how it would fair on big cals though.My friend and I both use Tasco SS 10x42 (Super Sniper) on our M-14's (mine is ChiCom, but my friend is in Canada, he gets the real thing, TRW !!!) I have only shot a few rounds with it, but my friend shoots 900 yards + with his. He has a 10x42 and a 16x42.These are military grade scopes and are 50 cal capableCheck these out. http://www.swfa.com/riflescopes/tasco/index.html http://www.nucleus.com/~cronhelm/1mile.html GWN 0 -
I bought a used Kahles fixed 6X42 (just got it today) the exterior has been repainted a matt black. Duplex retical with drop comp and range finder, advertised as sniper scope. Its every bit as good as my Swarvorski (but not quite as pretty) cost $249.95 ... Swarvorski(new) $649 (edit) ... definately got more than my money's worth!

Sir, I used to sell a lot of Tasco World Class scopes 4-5 years ago, mostly 3-9's. They were good scopes with a life time guarantee and Tasco was very good about honoring that. The World Class Plus scopes were very good buys for the money and I still think they are. But, ever since they moved manufacture to China the World Class scopes are junk. I would recommend a Burris, especially the Signature series. The new Fullfield II's are also good buys for the money. 0 -

25-06 When did tasco move to china?I now use simmons scopes for my crossbow with no problems.Maybe it was just a bad scope i received but after that i have a bad taste in my mouth about tasco. G&G 0 -
I've been using a Tasco Scope that I bought for $49 fifteen years ago and it works just fine. It's on a .356 cal Winchester Model 94 so it gets a pretty good whomp when I shoot and I carry it into the woods a lot during deer season. I have not been shooting a lot since ammo is expensive, but the scope is fine with me.Bonne Chasse!
