[QUOTE="Steel Rain, post: 692767, member: 30320"] I inherited a 7mmRM several years ago which wore a Simmons Whitetail Classic scope. The scope lived on that rifle for at least 10 years to my knowledge. I only shot the rifle a three times with the Simmons. The scope was replaced by a Zeiss Conquest. The Whitetail Classic lives on a .243 now. If just sighting in and leaving it alone you should be fine. Is it as clear as the Zeiss? No. Is it as easy to adjust? No. Do I like it for an inexpensive scope on my .243 that will allow me to pop a doe in the 100-300 yard range year after year? Certainly. Will it be replaced with higher quality optic? Yes, but only when it fails me. Hope my opinion is of use. Have a good one! [/QUOTE]
