    ScopeUout, anyone used them?

    Just looking at a new scope for my JW15 .22 to replace the Guncity one that it came with.

    Looking at the Tasco ones Here

    Anyone bought from them or any thoughts on the scopes and prices, remember they do free shipping which is a big bonus for me.

    Thanks

    Yes, bought my first Nikon scope from them a while back - very good to deal with.

    Yup, they’re very helpful. Not sure about a Tasco though - must be better options out there.

    In that price range I'd look at nikko Stirling. Someone will no doubt suggest a 3000$+ scope

    I picked up a vortex crossfire II from them 8 weeks ago. Shipping was unexpectedly quick.

    I wouldnt recomend a tasco mate would be pritty much the same as a GC no brander,
    Stick with a nikko stirling and buy the most expensive one for your budget, e.g. dont think your gonna get a better scope by skimping on $50.
    Just my life lesson paying for cheap scopes thinking they will be good

    Yep it's a waste of money on the scope and you waste more money on ammo proving it's not a very good scope

    I used Scopeuout last week. In the lead up to my purchase decision I had lots of questions which were answered promptly. The scope I bought was delivered very quickly but unfortunately had a manufacturing defect which I noticed about half a second after I unboxed it. I got in touch straightaway and there was absolutely no quibbling about returning the scope, which was refunded in full including the return courier cost. I certainly don’t blame the retailer for carrying defective stock, but I do have a bit of a question mark about the wholesaler, who I think had the chance from previous returns from other retailers to work out so that there was a problem with this particular model. But to be fair they also dealt with it very promptly and no quibbles.

    I would definitely use Scopeuout again, and the only reason I requested a refund was that unfortunately there was nothing else in their lineup that met my requirements.
