Reddit reviews UTG 3-9X32 1" BugBuster Scope, AO, RGB Mil-dot, QD Rings

I use a Vortex Crossfire II 2-7x32 and love it. Very clear glass and a good eye box. It is a little more than your budget though. I usually sit around 3-5x

Nikon has a 3-9x for $90. I've heard they make good stuff but never used it.

I've heard Pinty is good if you're on a budget. Again, never used it.

I've heard the UTG bugbuster 3-9x is good. The onyl experience I have with UTG is their 1-4.5x which I like and their 3x magnifier which I did not like.

The Visionking 1.25-5x would be good. I very rarely go above 5x, and even then it's just for spotting.

I think its this one UTG 3-9x32 Compact CQB Bug Buster.

So for reference, I have a Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x40 and it's been a fine scope. I've also used someone else's Nikon P-223 scope and it was good too, so you probably wouldn't go far wrong with either of the ones you linked. But, adjustable parallax is something I probably wouldn't get a scope without anymore, especially for .22 where the range can vary from across the room distance to 100+ yards. The key words to look for in the scope specs are "adjustable parallax", "adjustable objective" (AO, when the parallax adjustment is done by twisting a ring around the objective lens at the front), or "side-focus" (when the parallax adjustment is on a turret on the side of the scope).

If you want to stick with Nikon, it looks like they're making an inexpensive adjustable parallax scope now. The tech specs on that site say it adjusts down to 50 yards, but the mark on the adjustment ring in the picture says 10, and Amazon also says 10 yards minimum, which is good for .22.

On the lower end of the budget, I also have a number of inexpensive Leapers/UTG/Centerpoint scopes (3-9x40, 3-9x35, 1.5-4x32, and a couple others) and have actually been really impressed with them for the money. Their main market seems to be air rifles, which many people take less seriously, but air rifle scopes have to be very rugged, and typically can adjust their parallax to much closer than scopes meant for rifles. And the prices are pretty damn good for the features. This UTG 3-9x32 has almost 2000 reviews and still 4.5 stars on Amazon, is very compact, comes with a sunshade, caps, and QD scope rings (I just got a set of UTG QD rings for another scope and they seem OK so far, .22 isn't very demanding), adjusts down to 3 yards, and is under $80. Amazing what they're doing in China these days. There are a number of similar models from other brands with various features and zoom ranges, probably all made in the same factory in China. I'm not sure if any of them are notably better quality than any others, I mostly stick with UTG for my cheap scopes because I have experience with them now.

One I saw just now is this Bushnell 2-7x32, and looks like it might be a good alternative.

On the higher end of the budget scale, Vortex has a 4-12x50 and a 4-12x40 that are adjustable. That's also more magnification though.

I just put a leapers utg bug buster on my rifle. Fantastic scope and more advanced features than you'd expect for less than a bill. Illuminated reticle is also a huge bonus if you use your rifle for dusk hunting of rodents. I can't see using a scope that's more expensive than the rifle. Check out some reviews and videos. I should mention I have a takedown and the length is just right to fit in my bag. I had a simmons before that was waaay to long. Also included are a set of decent qd rings. Imo best value for the money. Went out to shoot it this weekend and it zeroed flawlessly.

What's your purpose?

I've got this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005UGIMNQ/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details on mine (with a riser, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003TWX8HS/ref=oh_o01_s00_i01_details) and I've got no issues hitting an 8" plate @ 300y with my 20" AR.

i might get some flack for this, but i am extremely happy with the [utg 3-9x32] (https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B005UGIMNQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_TgFQDbGPDF4NF). the qd rings are great. a stick of loctite (blue stuff) will keep the threads from loosening. be gentle, vortex and leupold fanboys.

I think you will be fine - just make sure you bring instructions on how to adjust.

Personally I have a UTG Bug Buster that works great on a 10/22.

Check out UTG scopes. They make great (for airsoft)(I have one of their red dot sights and it's really high quality) products that are designed for real steal weapons. So while they might be a budget brand for real firearms they are great for airsoft because there is no recoil or anything that would cause your sight to lose it's zero.

I know the one I linked is more expensive than the one you posted about but they have some that are less expensive than the one I linked.

Thanks! I didn't know what AO was. And I do notice the crosshairs shift when I move my head. So it must be the parallax. You saved me $115. Is this the scope you recommend?

Nice, I opted for the UTG Bug buster. It allows me to fit it in the bag with the scope still attached.

A UTG "Bug Buster" scope:
https://www.amazon.com/UTG-3-9X32-BugBuster-Scope-Mil-dot/dp/B005UGIMNQ

$85, and it comes with nice QD rings (which don't fit on the Ruger rail, so you'll need the $10 aluminum one from UTG or any picatinny rail for the 10/22). It's 3-9x power, illuminated mil-dot reticle, adjustable parralax, 1/4MOA turrets that are zero resettable and lockable. Hell of a deal for the money. I've got one on my takedown and I love it.

That and some more mags and you're set to start with.

UTG Bugbuster is popular. Comes with rings which is something you don't get when you get into scopes approaching $200. Everything is custom and pricey up there.

My scope was on sale for $130. Its a pretty good scope. Has red/green illumination, quick connect mounts, comes in a nice compact package with instructional manual, batteries and with flip up blinds and a sun shade.

The foregrip was given to me by a friend. I know nothing about it.

Check out the UTG bug buster. It's $80 but I love it and it's amazing for the price.

Looking for a cheap scope/red dot sight for my psa freedom rifle with an A2 front sight. I'm not looking for quality, just something that's about $40 or so and decent. This and this have good rating on amazon, anyone know if they're actually decent?

This has good ratings too.

I have a Ruger American Rimfire and have shot with a cheap Tasco and a slightly less cheap UTG.

Get it sighted in at 25 yds and you'll be able to kill anything in the 20-40 yard range with either one no problem. Or any other cheap scope for that matter.

The UTG comes with flip-cap covers, a sunshade, and pretty good quality rings. I recommend.

No problem. I use this:

I'm not sure if links are permitted here, so mods can take it down if they need to I guess. I'm not trying to sell these things, just giving an example of one that's worked well. I use my 10/22 as a squirrel gun, and I can take headshots at 30-40 yards with no problem. I'm sure other scopes would be the same.

Have fun!

This is what I currently use on my Avalon right now... I enjoy it but wish it had a 1-4x instead.

This will probably be my next purchase. Always having 3x zoom isnt the best...

Amazon.ca has a decent air rifle scope selection. UTG are lower end but air rifle rated scopes with decent ratings. http://www.amazon.ca/UTG-SCP-M392AOLWQ-Compact-Picatinny-Sunshade/dp/B005UGIMNQ

I just bought a UTG hunting air rifle scope from amazon.ca for a Benjamin Discovery it works great.

For those still looking, the Bug Buster is on sale at Amazon for $65
Fantastic deal.

I use this on my 10/22 and it’s fantastic.

I have this bad boy on my VEPR Ak47 that I can quickly mount on. Do you have any suggestions on a cheap sight that gives the AR its AR look? I will get a scope for it as well, but I just never use the iron sights.

Don't know if you ordered one yet but if you're looking for a proper scope with magnification and some illumination my father has had good results with this

This is the optic I have. It fits nice however I think I need to adjust my eye relief a bit. Over all I'm very happy with it and it fits in the original bag so I'm happy.
