Do any of you have any experience with this or any other NcSTAR scopes. Just was wondering if 4x30 is good for 50 yards and if this is a decent scope for $30. A local is selling one in great shape for this price. The product code is SEECR430R. Looks like they are around $60-70ish new.

Here is a pic:

Yeah midway has it for $20. I got this scope for $20 from Cheaper Than Dirt - America's Ultimate Shooting Sports Discounter It's a 4x32 w/ mil dot retical and is worth well more than $20 imo. Depends on your eyes but for me a 4x is accurate up 200 meters, maybe a little more on a good day, and mildot helps tremendously once you learn how to use it. I started out w/ the NcStar 3-9x42 rubber armor, then used a NcStar 1x red dot w/ laser co-wittnessed, but this one is the best I've used, as far as the 15-22 is concerned.

Oh cool you've owned both. What didn't you like about the NcSTAR rubber one? What do you like better about the $20 one? Looks like it has good reviews. Thanks for the info!!
 
I did like the rubber one, but for $170 I wanted a little more durability. Several times it lost zero not while firing but while moving through the field. Also the ill ret/laser combo option went out after a few weeks. However lots of members here have had good experience with 'em. The same brand red dot was awsome. Great quality and held zero. I use the 15-22 mostley for gopher, badger and rattlesnakes. Often I need to reach out to 75 or 100 meters or so while keeping a 2 inch group so the red dot became impractical. The one I have on now is rock solid. Strong aluminum rings, very clear retical and great price. It won't be $20 for long I'm sure. Utilizing the mil dot was easy because the majority of my targets are about 9"-10" tall, so that w/ the balistics chart of the ammo I use allows me to create a table I can almost alwayse utilize. I almost hit my target at 250 yards:cool:......with 74.4" of hold off:eek: This scope is a good choice imo but it all depends on your application. Good luck on your decision.

I bought em both! $50 bucks all together whatever haha. $30 for the used NcSTAR (which is in perfect working order) and $20 for the one you guys are recommending. If I dont like one it'll just go on ebay. I know dudes who spend over $2,000 on optics and spend 99% of their time on the 50-100 yard line and could probably get the same groups with airsoft optics! lol. Ima cheap bstrd so I need excuses haha
 
im running a hammers tdot i really like on my belt fed upper... cant say enough good things about it for 50 shipped
 
Howdy folks! I am a Newbie to the Forum and have been enjoying the assorted threads I have read about the 15 22. I took a look at the ncStar 4X30 scopeand had a question for those who have attached it to their 15 22. What kind of mount was used? Did it require a secondary mount or did the scope itself come with a good mount?

I've researched them quite a bit and it looks like the more expensive Mark III one comes with a lever action quick detach which will fit the 15-22 out of the box. Others come with assort other mounting options like carry handle mount (which wont work for 15-22), reagular weaver scope rings, or just dont come with mounts so you have to find em. Just pay attention when you shop.
 
Thanks for the help. I found a good deal on the NcStar P4 on ebay for $25 with free shipping that didn't come with mounts. I will begin me search for the right mount next. Thanks again!
