[QUOTE="chucknbach, post: 687852, member: 35487"] I agree with you on most parts and I do put the best scope I can afford on my hunting rifles and like you I will save for better. I took my Monarch off that 7mm and put it on my sons new hunting rifle and put the kick around Center point on there till I had enough for the Vortex I was saving for, which I just picked up yesterday.:) The Center Point had quite a few more rounds put down range than the Simmons and it held up nicley. I had been thinking that the Simmons was good enough to go on a centerfire, this thread was just the excuse I needed to do it, kinda glad I did it cuz' it has way better glass than the CP. I don't agree that the lower priced scopes are guaranteed to fail or are eventually going to fail. The only thing I can give you is you have a better chance of getting a lemon over a higher priced quality scope and most of those will be caught with in the first couple of rounds fired. [/QUOTE]
