[amazon fields="B000VYZMJO" image="1" value="thumb" image_size="large" image_align="center" image_link="none"]

When it comes to value, it’s hard to beat this incredible ProSport riflescope from Simmons. You’ll enjoy a solid 4x-12x magnification range backed up by a 40mm objective lens with fully-coated optics.

Additionally, a Quick Target Acquisition eyepiece allows for a minimum of 3.75 inches of eye relief so that you can quickly and comfortably use your scope. Speaking of comfort, all eyepieces and adjustment surfaces feature a SureGrip rubber that is easy to adjust and ergonomically-minded.

The picture itself is beautifully crisp, full of vivid color, and captures enough light that you’ll swear it’s using at least a 50mm objective width rather than a 40mm lens. This has kept the weight low, as it is only a comfortable 13.8 ounces, ensuring great maneuverability.

You get fully-adjustable elevation and windage through ergonomic turrets that have a low profile but still offer exceptional accessibility and grip. Additionally, they produce an audible click and a precise ¼ MOA.

The unit is also constructed from high-grade aircraft aluminum and given a black nitride finish. It is fully waterproof, shockproof, and fog-proof, as well as resistant to corrosion and reflections.

Not only is it a great balance in size and picture, but it’s also a great value. All this backed up by a lifetime warranty makes an investment in a Simmons scope a great decision.

Bottom Line

A wonderful scope for a variety of uses and builds, this product is durable, reliable, and affordable enough that it is accessible to virtually anyone.
