What spotting scope do you guys have that works well out to about 200 yards ?

Just a caution. The cheapies, even with big magnification, are very hard to use, too light and don't focus well.

Much under three hundred dollars is really a crapshoot and you are better off with the lower (like 20X) mag. high quality scope than a 60X cheapie.

Look at Nikon for some value in high quality scopes. JMHO.

One example of reasonably priced, high quality scope..............http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-16-48x-P...5460018&sr=8-4

this is one area where I have to agree, Cheap doesnt cut it at all. I have yet to buy one because of that.

I bought a $50 one at wallmart. It works good for the 100 yard range I took it to. Ignorance is bliss I guess.

I use the scope on my Sport to see the targets out to 200 yards...LOL

I've been very impressed with the Celestron 90mm Spotting scope. With the 32mm (40x) eyepiece I've not had a problem seeing 22 holes at 200 yards even if in the black. The tripod that comes with the scope is OK, but a little too flimsy for a windy day especially if using the 100x lens. Works perfect with the $30 Aspen micro-adjustable tabletop tripod.

Actually, you can get the scope with 32 mm eyepiece (no tripod or 12.5mm (100x) eyepiece) for $159 which is probably a better deal. The 40x is more than adequate to see 22 holes at 200 yards and you won't waste money on the tripod you probably won't use.
