Most Helpful Positive Review Good Value
Good scope. One caution, I bought weaver rings that were suppose to handle a 40 mm scope but they weren't high enough on my Savage 93, had to go next size up. Pros: clear, side focus really works well, seems well built Cons: None
Most Helpful Negative Review Buyer know what you're buying
Although this scope is filling the bill for what it will be used for, it is not the scope of the year. It is very precise when it comes to where you hold your eye or head. It blacks out too easily with a slight movement of your head. It does seem to work as a distance shooter with the graduation ...

Simmons pro target 3x12x40

by zoey, from FL, United States Written on May 11, 2015
GREAT SCOPE FOR THE NEW SAVAGE A-17 SEMI-AUTO HMR 17 I USED THE LOW MOUNT RINGS THE SCOPE BARLEY TOUCHED THE BOLT COVER AT THE REAR OF THE SCOPE. I USED A SMALL STRIP OF 1/2 3M DOUBLE SIDED TAPE INSIDE THE BOTTOM RING THAT RAISED THE SCOPE TO THE PERFECT HEIGHT THIS WAY THE SCOPE STAYS CLOSE TO THE BARREL. THE PERFECT FIT!!! THANKS TO BRIAN IN CUSTOMER SERVICE HE REALLY KNOWS HIS PRODUCT LINE.
Pros:
  • Great Workmanship
Cons:
  • None
Would recommend: Yes

Excellent value

by Ray W., from AR, United States Written on April 2, 2015
I purchased this scope for a 22LR rifle, not a 17HMR. It has a combination of power range and side focus, in addition to the high quality glass I have always found in Simmons scopes, that make it a very functional scope for any rimfire, and probably for an AR given it's compact size and magnification. The duplex reticle is sharp and has an adequately fine center wire. It is unfortunate that Simmons does not YET offer a ranging reticle similar to the DOA600.
Would recommend: Yes

Simmons ProTarget for .17 HMR

by Ray, from PA, United States Written on December 9, 2014
Great value scope with very good optical clarity.
True to the advertising this is a great inexpensive varmint scope.
Clarity is great out past 200 yards. Easy to mount and sight in. It was almost dead on with the boresite when initially affixed in the mounts.
Pros:
  • Optical Carity and price
Cons:
  • none... yet
Best Used for:
  • Varmints
Would recommend: Yes

Simmons ProTarget 3-12X40

by Legacy Reviewer, Verified Owner from LA, United States Written on March 10, 2012
This is a grate scope although really heavy. I put it on a 10/22 in 22LR because I wanted a 3x12 thinking I could just use the standerd turrent on it. I've never seen a turrent that is numberd backwards. This is no good in the field they have to fix this!!!
Pros: very clear and bright
Cons: can't get a 22 turrent for it, the elevation turrent numbers are backwards makes it hard to adjust in the field.
Would recommend: No

Simmons Pro target

by Legacy Reviewer, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on January 12, 2012
I set it up on a CZ 452 varmint and works very well. Only downside is magnification knob slightly too big and gets in the way of bolt handle at low setting. Other than that it works great and very clear
Pros: Easy to use and set up
Cons: Magnification knob gets in the way of bolt handle sometimes
Would recommend: Yes
