If you want a 3-9x, I believe this is the best one I've used for under $100. https://www.pyramydair.com/product/leapers-utg-3-9x32-ao-rifle-scope-mil-dot-reticle-1-4-moa-1-tube-3-8?a=4627If you need more magnification, as mentioned the Centerpoint 4-16X Illuminated Adjustable AO is a good buy. I had one for a few years and it held up great on all kinds of springers. You may have to find one used, as most places seem to be out of stock. WalMart used to stock them in the stores. Very decent scope.You can get a very serviceable scope for under $100. The Leapers/UTG line seems to have been the most reliable for me, hands down. I had a few Hawkes and all had issues. I had an Airmax that was fuzzy, sent it to Hawke, they said it was fine. All the others had zero holding or AO issues. This wont fly for a scope near $200, IMO. I won't own another Hawke ever.

Again, not saying limbshaker's experiences aren't valid. Each person has their own experiences. Just sharing a different data point.
