Are they similar or is there a comparable difference? Not too familiar with either..

I think that it's Ruger American rifles that come with a Simmons scope.....Way better than a CP.

Surprisingly Simmon's are very good inexpensive glass. I put a 4 x on my 22lr . It smacked a lot of squirrels.
I have a CP on my break open nitro venom it does well. But needs adjusting
Once in while. Simmon's is better.
Inexpensive but rugged. My Simmon's
Takes a lot of abuse.

Nothing fancy for sure but can get the job done, especially at $FREE.99..!

I run a Simmons rimfire on my .22LR and a Weaver on my .17HMR... both are decently priced and kill rabbits.

No recommendation. I used riflescopes around $500.

Great feedback! You might just be 14 months too late...

I have a Vortex Crossfire II 2 x 7 x 32mm on my .223. Not much more than $100. Checkout OpticsPlanet.com

AND they do have BDC MOA marks on the reticle and their online ballistic calculator so you can work out a ballistics sheet for what each BDC mark would be for your load you're using. They are fairly lightweight too. Nice and Bright to look thru. And I like having the 2x down low for up-close jump-shot action.

Me personally, I'd shy away from the Simmons. I tried one of their 4 x 32's on my boys rimfire, and their was separate distinct visible distortion fields in each quadrant of the glass within the reticle.

And yet another follow up post even after this.

 

[TheGDog]

Yes.. because other users will come along after the fact... Get this, maybe even perform this thing we call "a search" and actually *find* answers they were looking for. GASP! I know, right?

A cheap scope will get the job done. Just don’t skimp on the rings. Better scopes work well in low light conditions, so keep that in mind.
