What is your opinions on this scope? I am looking at the 2-6x32.

Good scope for a mild recoiling gun, but if your talking about something a little stronger I personallly didn't have a good experience with them.

I am thinking of getting a 6.8 for my contender so hopefully it would work for that.

How about BSA Edge 2-7x32?

I would at least go with the Weaver or up to the Bushnell Elite.

I have a thompson center RP 2.5x20 now but hate the 20 mm objective. Maybe I can sell that one and get a weaver or the bushnell. I would prefer to get a Leupold or Burris but money is not that free flowing for me.

Cougarii, I didn't mean to dash your hopes. I have had bad experiences with Simmons scopes, and even worse with their customer service. To be honest with you they bittered me twards their products..

Not even for a paperweight........

I like Burris scopes personally. I have only had one issue with them and it was on a 44 Mag SBH. From my understanding from Burris an internal seal busted and it looked like there was water spots on the glass. I had a bear hunt scheduled less than a month way. I had a new scope at my doorstep in a little over a week. Very good customer service. I have Burris scopes on all my guns. Just my 2c

I've had good luck with mine and I have two of them one on my SRH 44 magnum and one on my single six hunter.

One came on a gun i purchased, and i hate it sorry eye relief and not clear at all.Put on another barrel but plan to replace soon.

Bought a brand new one back in Sept because I found it at a very good price...I mounted it on my 30 TCU and I really like it...it is clear and has very good eye relief. I dont know if it would hold up on a big kicker. But for the money on a lite recoiler I would take a chance. Rob

I have a simmons 4X scope I've had on my contender/.22 Hornet for over twenty years with no problems but the Hornet is not a heavy recoiling round either-john

Have one on my 17 ackley...not as clear as my burris. Don't know how it would fair on a big boomer...but for lighter rounds it should be fine.

I have them on two .44 Magnums. There have been no problems.

I have one on my. 308 Striker and I like it so far. Clear and I reallyliked the price I have had it about a year with no problems.

According to the other post guess I been lucky, got 4X Simmons on 357 Max, 41 mag, 44 mag, 45 colt, 475 and 500 Linebaughs and the 375 JDJ and 45-70, have never had one break. These are all 15 in. bull barrel encores, would rather spend money on guns and reloading supplies than what I consider overpriced handgun scopes. JMHO

The Simmons from years ago were very good.
