Bullseye, Extreme, Thurman for starters. I own all three, and they're very good. Obviously, there are others. I can tell you that all the ones I mentioned are giving outstanding service mounted on Toxonics, SureLoc, and Copper John Frames. CR Apex is also quite good. I really love my Bullseye Mellenium. Well worth a look.:thumbs_up
Help me pick my first scope..
In anticipation of the arrival of my new 06' Constitution, I am starting to pick up accessories already.
I picked up a one year old used Copper John ANTS for dirt cheap ($80
), and now I am looking at getting a scope for it.
I have never owned a scope before, this will be my first. I have shot other peoples setups though, and know enough that I think I want a scope with 4x power, and no up-pin. I would prefer a lense that is drilled so I can easily put a dot on it for indoor spots, or throw fiber in it for 3D and the local marked distance "Lost Arrow" league.
I think I would like the following requirements.
No up-pin
drilled for .019 fiber
4x power lense
machined aluminum housing with holes for light to get through
10/32 rod
less than $150
What fits these categories? I have seen pics of extreme, bullseye, CR, Viper, Cartel, Shrewd, etc that all seem to look interesting, but am looking for some input from others. I plan to be using it primarily for 3D from the open stakes, and will be shooting spots as well this winter occasionally.

I had the the chance to shoot a black eagle (42mm) last year at a 3D tourny...wow, it was absolutely awesome....but what could you expect with swarovski glass.

Extreme or Viper are two that we sell a lot of that would fit that description. I personally really like the Extreme sights. It sounds like it meets all of your needs.

Here in Australia Leigh Cornish makes scopes that are fast gaining an international reputation for quality and value, considering the US72c to the AU$1 it becomes very affordable too.
