Google "Lyman scope repair" and there are +10 places to contact. From reading the information I found, after you repair the Lyman you are poorer and still have an old scope with old lens technology.

MidwayUSA has a 6 X 20 X 50 mm Simmons for ~$125. Yes, it is a Simmons, cheap, and I own 4 of them on an assortment of 223 and 22 LR rifles. Optic quality is acceptable, repeatable accuracy, satisfied customer. I would not put a scope of this quality on a .300 Win mag, but for my applications, I'm satisfied.

The prairie dogs don't know the difference. The HB 223 S&W model 1500 has scored at 325 yards and a custom Ruger 10-22 has hit the target at 175 yards with these scopes. My reloads are cheaper than a new scope.
