Simmons lies about the weight not 17 ounces - Simmons Predator Quest Rifle Scope - Side Focus, Tru Plex, 4.5-18x44

I purchased this scope for one of my light weight rifles, the listed 17 ounces is OK for a 30 mm tube and 44 objective.

The second I picked it up I knew it wasn't 17 ounces and the scale (accurate to 1 gram) confirmed 20.15 ounces, this with out the shade or lens caps. That is 15% higher than listed every where on the web.

At that weight and with the lenses it is a $140 scope listed for much higher.

I guess Simmons can continue to lie as long as the sellers won't hold them to the truth. Optics Planet needs to be truthful, weigh a couple and post the correct weight.
